We cruised 30 miles South on Kentucky Lake today. A nice, easy cruise in 70 degree sunny weather.

I did catch a nice little smallmouth bass before we left the anchorage, and we saw the bald eagle fishing for his breakfast in the little bay again. Very scenic.







We saw this old abandoned dock building along the river. There is absolutely no land access to it. It's just a big dock from bygone days, possibly from prior mussel harvesting or fishing ventures. We also passed a U S Coastguard buoy tender boat, fixing the red and green channel markers on the rivers. We're sure glad they're around because the channels change and the Coast Guard moves the buoys to match the channels and puts the damaged or missing bouys back in place.

We're at the Pebble Isle Marina in New Johnsonville, TN for the night. We were here this time of the year 2 years ago when we did the Great Loop Route, and this long "transient dock" was packed full of boaters. Today, it's almost empty, with just 4 boats. There are lots of boats in the permanent slips here though, including a nice Hatteras 53MY like ours.
