Kentucky Lakes

This morning we said good-by to our new friends that we traveled the last 200 miles with, and said we would meet again at the Rendezvous in October located at Joe Wheeler State Park

Today was a beautiful clear 81 degree day cruising from Green Turtle Bay marina to Kenlake Marina on the Kentucky Lake. What a magnificent body of water and the marinas are plentiful offering necessary amenities. We arrived about 1:00 PM, launched the dinghy and went exploring the many coves located near the marina. There are plenty of coves used by many for afternoon anchorages with friends or by yourself with solitude. Kenlake Marina is located in Kenlake State Park, 1600 acres of rolling hills, a golf course, a lodge, lake cottages all overlooking the lake, (2) resturarants, meeting rooms and groomed perfectly. Nice employees and very accommodating. Kenlake was the first State Park on the Lake and the history of the park is very interesting and a fun read. Located 40 miles S.W. of Paducah, KY. We had the lodge pick us up at the marina and went to a very nice dining room at the lodge overlooking Kentucky Lake and had dinner. After dinner they brought us back to the marina in a Park vehicle. Life is good.

Enjoying a quiet evening on the boat, Diann is watching a movie, I am blogging and using the marina WIFI..

Tomorrow breakfast at the Marina restaurant, opens at 7:00, then take off for Pebble Isle Marina 50 miles up the lake in Johnsonville, TN. Just another State to visit.
Travelling the Kentucky Lakes has been a very pleasant and beautiful experience. The lake is spacious, deep, and clean. A very nice part of the journey.
