daughter #2 and I were amazed (and that is probably an understatement) at the discourteousness I am not sure that is a word even) we witnessed down there. We were driving along and this SUV (Dodge Durango to be specific) passes us and stays in the passing lane and since I was doing a good little 55 this SUV had to be going faster than that - when what does it do but GO up over the median strip and made a U-turn - never slowing down from whatever speed he passed us at and right back the other way he went. Then we are sitting at the light to make a left turn into the shopping center to go to Dawahare's and our light is red as is the other two lanes going out of town - the lanes of traffic that have the right-of-way are coming out of the shopping center - when this darn little old car comes barrelling up the lane beside us (mind you the light is STILL red or we would not have been sitting here) and with out a care one - the woman goes right on thru that light like it wasn't even there -matter of fact - I will almost swear to the fact that she did NOT know it was there..lol...as we were going to Pikeville we had passed a newly build dollar store sorta near Robinson Creek so we thought we would go in there on our way out of town - my first & last stop - as we were getting out of our car a couple were exiting their vehicle near us and kept looking at our tags and sorta snickering (y'all know I do not reside in the state of KY - although my mom is from Ashcamp) - so during the time we are in the store I don't think we saw them again until we got in the check out line and there was probably 10 people in line with only one check-out open UNTIL the girl came back from lunch and says she will "happily" get someone on register one & since I am the next one in line I push my buggy in that direction. Now mind you daughter is in front of the buggy and goes up to the register at which time snickering couple push between me and daughter and throw their stuff on the cash register. Daughter is looking at me and telling me to put my stuff on the counter - which was impossible since snickering couple's stuff is already there & she was like "Mom - these people are pushing me" and being the role model that I am (NOT) I told her in a rather loud voice to let the d@mn people go ahead cause I'd have to run them over to get in front of them. Needless to say that will be the first & last time I ever go there and daughter is still amazed that people would be that rude to her. We didn't get to eat at her choice restaurant (Applebee's) because the line was all the way out the door and there was over a 30 minute wait at that time. Well, all you all on this board have always been pretty darn nice but I want to ask two questions - is it legal to ride motorcycles in your state with no helmets AND twice in the last month that we have been there we saw vehicles with NO windshields - what gives there???? Now, before y'all tell me to stay in my state I do enjoy coming down there but today must have been like the trip to hell & back
