My one stop in Kentucky was Land Between the Lakes which sits in the southwest corner of the state and extends into Tennessee. In 1963, President Kennedy designated it a national recreation area which displaced about 3,000 people though both lakes had been formed much earlier by the Tennessee Valley Authority. I enjoyed biking and trail hiking less than half of the area during my three days. This is definitely a shared use space to bike, hike, fish, boat, hunt, etc. It was a great time of the year to be here as I imagine summer time must be packed with people in the region. After 6 weeks of living in a community of hundreds of people, I was ready to return to my tent in the woods and wake up with the birds. That said, the cold weather hit on my second night but that's a tale that continues into my time in Tennessee. More coming soon!

Sue ... that is a very good question! I've really been planning life in short bursts this year so I don't have an answer at this point! Heading to South Carolina in the morning & will be in place there for a bit pondering holiday travel (how/when?) and what 2016 may look like! Stay tuned & if I hit Maryland, we will connect! j.

MBR -- so glad you're following! Was thinking of you a few days ago as a ranger in the Smoky Mountains was talking about the azaleas there in the spring! Sent you an email; let's be in touch soon! J.

Great photos as usual. Loved the sunset. Wondering, was the outhouse also for sale?

Good question but that beautiful hall tree storage bench was just $295! Leave a Reply. |
