Grand Rivers, KY – September 13, 2008

Last night we went to dinner at the Commonwealth Yacht Club with Sandy and Jim of Footloose. Transient boaters are given a temporary membership card so we can dine in the yacht club. We were all happy to get off the boat and eat some food prepared by someone else. This is a dry county and we brought our wine to drink. The yacht club had a wall of beautiful wooden lockers. Each member has their own locker and this is where the members keep their bottles of liquor. This way they don’t have to bring in something every time they dine.

Green Turtle Bay Resort and Marina is very large. In addition to the marina they offer condominium and houseboat rentals. It is located about 1 mile from Grand Rapids and is in an area called The Land Between the Lakes. There is a large piece of land located between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake. This area is quite a popular place to go for vacations.

There is also a summer playhouse in Grand Rapids. It offers various plays and variety shows throughout the year. Tonight we are going to see “Variety! Music, Memories & More”, a Branson-style family show featuring professional singers, dancers and musicians.
