Last week I spent 4 days solo on the True Grit on Kentucky Lake. I am too lazy to do a blog like Tom S so here are just a few random views to offer the flavor of the lake -

My Favorite Private Dock Location

Please remember to untie BEFORE departing the dock.

I thought the idea of a sail boat was you didn't need power?

I guess this is when you want to duck hunt in comfort

Local wildlife

AND why I boat

Few things in the world measure up to the thrill and satisfaction of boating in a boat that you built.

Cool sunset.
I saw a cool sunrise a while back. It was at that bright orange sunrise with sea fog thick, the whole world seemed to be Martian orange, socked in with the orange fog, I was navigating purely on chart plotter and depth finder. Even if I had a camera, I doubt it could show how eerie that was.
