Road Trip # 1 : 3 States

Road Trip #1

Arriving at Green Turtle Bay KY is like hitting an Oasis!  This is the "Land Between the Lakes" 

We sign up for the courtesy car and the spa, then early the next morning head into Paducah KY to pick up our rental car.

We be going on a road trip!  Destination: Columbus Indiana. 

It's really only 4 hours by the road. Our first plan was to motor onboard Fugitive into Louisville KY, traveling up the Ohio River. That journey would have taken us 2 weeks to go both ways, so 4 hours is really nothing! 

How cool is it to drive a car again?

We are headed to visit Brian's sister Anne Marie and her husband John in their new home in Columbus.

We have been looking forward to this since before we left! 

She feeds us well and spoils us silly!

  We laugh a lot, tell stories, watch a marathon, walk across the Ohio River into Kentucky, and too soon it's time to head back to the boat again.

We need to arrive back at the marina in the daylight, as Brian believes he locked the keys in the boat and we need to break in somehow.  Good thing people know us there!

Tonight Sun Sept 27 there is a lunar eclipse. I have front row seats from the boat door and it's a spectacular sight!

Having checked off our list, the states of  Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana we are ready to motor south.

We are happy to see that our friends Terry and Lola are still here, rested and ready to roll down the river together! They are from Nashville and are headed home for a visit. We are booked into downtown Nashville to see and do all there is to do in that amazing city.

Thanks ever so much Anne Marie and John!!
