Stats:
Green Turtle Bay Marina to Anchorage on Kentucky Lake MM
88. 7:30 – 5:00
67 miles upstream.
We let the boat warm up well before we left this morning to
make sure she wasn’t going to overheat.
And she didn’t. She performed
swimmingly. It’s great to be moving
again!
An old abandoned building. It doesn't show in the picture below but it is covered in graffiti. It's weird, on the charts they often mention places that must have been here before the river was damned and the lake created. It will say something like "Dover Station (historical)" and you'll see a shallow area where something must have been. It's a little ghost townish. It makes me wonder about times past and the history of the lake.

We anchored in a little bay with the bow facing west so we can sit on the bow and watch the sunset after dinner. We’ve got steaks and veggies on the grill. Later we’ll watch a movie and call it an early night. It’s getting chilly in the mornings with an autumn bite to the air so we’re eager to get a little more south. Tomorrow will be another cruising day. We'll lay down some miles.
