After spending 2 beautiful days on Kentucky Lake at spectacular anchorages, it is time to continue our trek south. Weather has been perfect (sunshine & temp in the 80’s) and swimming off the back of Northern Light has been refreshing.
We are now on the River again and taking our time heading south. Today was another pretty day on the Tennessee. We saw a lot of fisherman mostly in fast bass boats going from one spot to another in their pursuit of the “big one”. We encountered a few tow barges and actually passed a few on the #1 whistle. The scenery along the river is just beautiful, many trees, rock ledges, little islands and a lot of birds heading south like us. The white pelicans are the most interesting and we have seen very many of them. We are spending the night a Cuba Landing Marina near Sugar Tree, TN (about 75 miles SW of Nashville). It is a small quaint marina with all the facilities we need.
Tomorrow morning we will continue our journey south.

Hey,
With all that good eating you guys are doing I hope you have a daily exercise routine to work it off. I'm envisioning three grey-bearded fellows doing jumping jacks together on deck as the sun comes up. And what a sight that is!!!!
Thanks again for the entries each day.

Today is Columbus Day, now called Discovery Day, and it seems only fitting that the Crew from Charlevoix is rediscovering the mighty Mississippi. I wonder how Columbus would would tell his story if he had a blog?
Travel well...
Mike
