Anchorages Ahead, Anchorages Behind

Today we're in New Johnsonville TN in Trace Creek off Kentucky Lake (and the Tennessee River).  "Old" Johnsonville was flooded when the Kentucky Dam formed Kentucky Lake in 1945.  Dave and Anna are napping and I'm waiting on laundry to dry...

Kentucky Lake/Tennessee River is absolutely gorgeous with hills and trees changing to fall colors.  People tell us the Tennessee River gets even prettier but I can't imagine how.  We've enjoyed quiet anchorages over the last few days and are looking forward to more ahead!
