October 30: Panther Bay

This morning we cruised from Barkley Lake through the Barkley Canal into the Kentucky Lake. It was a lovely day warming into the afternoon as we travel south from Kentucky back towards Tennessee, but this time on the Tennessee River rather than the Cumberland.

Tonight we are anchored out in Panther Bay surrounded by forests that are painted for autumn. It is obviously a fine fishing spot since we have seen many bass boats as the day waned.

Tom is enjoying reading his book about the Mississippi floods of 1927, and we are close enough to civilization that our antenna picks up a couple of stations.
