9/21 - Sugar Bay Anchorage - Kentucky Lake

Sugar Bay cove our first protected anchorage in quite some time

"Reflection" and her reflection

"Reflection" and "Falkor" got underway at 10 a.m. for our 14 mile trip to Sugar Bay. We entered the short Barkley Canal which took us from Lake Barkley into Kentucky Lake, that is actually the wide part of the Tennessee River.

The scenery was lush and beautiful, and in some ways reminded us of Chesapeake Bay with many lovely coves for anchoring. We arrived at our location at noon-time, and a little later we were joined by two more boats, "Still Busy" and "Meander".

After lunch, all the boaters came out to play! Some went swimming in the 84 degree water, some washed their hulls, and everyone dropped their dinghies in to go for rides around the anchorage area. George grilled spareribs for dinner, and we enjoyed watching a DVD afterward, followed by a restful night in this special place.
