Tennessee River and Kentucky Lake

So we have been anchoring in many of the coves at Kentucky Lake which is part of the Tennessee River. This area was developed during President Kennedy’s administration. The lake is formed and regulated by Kentucky Dam which has a drop of 57 feet. There is a strip of land that is all wildlife preserve and parkland so there is no development at all. It is called the land between the lakes. It is very cool.

This is Dorothy and Larry, our new friends from
Florida.

This is Judy and Woody, they are from Maine and are part of our new friends also.

This is us, three weeks out and still loving it!

Here is a typical anchorage on one of the coves off
Kentucky lake.

View from the shore.

This is a typical houseboat.  There are many of
these on Kentucky Lake and the Tennesse River.
You can see they raft several boats together of all types.

This is non-typical boat with an attached bar which is complete with a canopy and speakers.
Of course this was Labor Day weekend and everyone was enjoying the beautiful day.

                  After the party, everyone went home and we were back to our peaceful anchorage.
