Dry Fork Bay, Tennessee - Days 1 - 2

We traveled 17.5 NM to Dry Fork Bay, TN and anchored in a beautiful cove in Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area.  We shared the cove with two other Loopers the first day, and only one the second.  We enjoyed exploring the trails. We spotted a few Bald Eagles. We came upon an old cemetery with unmarked graves on a beautiful hill overlooking the water. We are having a great time anchoring out and dink'in around!

Anchorage.

I thought this tree root was a snake!

We are "here"...

...which is "here".

Lil-Dub is loving this!

Zoom zoom!

Unmarked Graves.

Beautiful resting place for this small cemetery. When I researched this cemetery and Nichell's Cemetery from our visit a few days ago this is what I found: "Before modern transpiration and developed road systems, many families buried their dead on small family plots or in community church cemeteries.  There are more than 240 known cemeteries in Land Between The Lakes.  These cemeteries are remnants of the communities that existed prior to the creation of Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake, pre - 1938."

Got Moonshine?!  Charlie does!

Kenlake, Kentucky - Day 3 (Kentucky Lake State Park)

We took our dinghy,  Flying Fish, to the courtesy dock at Kentucky Lake State Park and enjoyed a hike. Garmin chased a squirrel off leash and found a Geocache. Charlie found a persimmon tree loaded with fruit and picked a few. The trees are changing colors and the leaves are falling!  We dinked over and explored the peninsula we've had as our view for the past few days.

Geocache in Kentucky. (Check that state off the list!)

Our boat in the distance.

Hope our friend, Scott, notices the two lanyards around my neck!

Kenlake, Kentucky - Day 2

Relaxing day at anchor.....

Beautiful sunrise!

We are "here".

I had to toss my herb garden prior to checking into Custom's while exiting Canada...time to start the next 'crop' before having to toss it once again before entering the Bahama's in a few months. I'm finding it's difficult to buy fresh herbs to plant this time of year.

Evidently, we have "photo-bombed" Green Turtle Bay Resort and Marina's face book page!  (We are boat at top, docking at their fuel dock.) Too funny! Thank you Betsy, aboard Fryedaze for 'liking' their post, which got my attention to look.

G-Man sums up our day at anchor!
