We had a quiet night at our anchorage. We did notice it was pitch black at about 8 last night. The days are certainly getting shorter.
We pulled anchor at 8:15 and were back on Kentucky Lake. We passed many fishermen and several fishermen passed us as they were going to different spots to try their luck. They all went much, much faster than us.
We passed a partially dismantled railroad bridge, then an abandoned building in the middle of the water which was called an ‘abandoned dock’ on
the charts. The abandoned dock would have been on shore prior to the dam being built and the creation of Kentucky Lake.
We arrived at Pebble Isle Marina at 12:45. Nice, short day. Darrell had time to replace the threshold for one of our sliding doors. He finished just as it started to rain.
As we were traveling this morning we received a radio call from Footloose. They were about ½ mile ahead of us. It seems they had changed their mind yesterday and decided to have a short day like us. They stayed at a marina about 2 miles further up the lake than our anchorage. They were also going to Pebble Isle Marina, so we met up with them again.
There is a restaurant here, the “Grey Heron Grill”. We have heard many reports of excellent food here. The restaurant is more the size of a small café and is located in the same building as the marina office. There is a wide array of food offered with this small kitchen. Our friends on Footloose had lunch there and said it was very good. We are all planning to eat supper there.
One of their desserts is a fried twinkie with ice cream and another is called cookie delight. That is a large chocolate chip cookie taken directly from the oven and topped with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
Food review tomorrow.
