Buzzzzz

Thursday, September 22:  We have been anchoring out because there are many coves on Kentucky Lake. But we have to be careful that they are deep enough so our boat doesn't run aground. We need at least 5 feet of water under the boat and the turns and twists to get to those coves can be torturous. We BOTH watch the depth finder. Here's one nice anchorage at the mouth of Hurricane Creek right behind some cypress trees.


All evening it sounded like a bunch of bees all around us with the many, many bass boats buzzing from one fishing spot to the next.  But I did manage to get out on the kayak to take pictures while Kelly fished.

 
Friday:  We only traveled about 30 miles and anchored behind an island. It was miserably hot again so we started the generator and air conditioning to get cool and run the refrigerator. Kelly has a couple small solar panels that keep a battery charged so he hooked up the TV, we found a signal for our wifi and watched the newest Longmire!!! It is a good thing I made us a screen door because the mayflies found us.

Saturday:  Another short travel day to Cuba Landing Marina.  We will have the boat here several weeks while we travel to Memphis to visit our grandson!!!.

  5. Sounds like you are having a great trip. That shrimp fest sounded so good - I'm hungry.

    Enjoy your trip. I can't wait until your next post.
