Land between the Lakes

During our last camping trip in the USA, one of our fellow campers suggested us to visit this area that was unknown to us.

It is called 'Land between the Lakes' and is situated right on the border and between Kentucky and Tennessee. Since I had Paducah on my wishlist anyway, we decided to give it a try, and we have not regretted it a single moment.

 

We found a great campground that was run by the Civil Corps of Engineers and managed to find a nice site where we could stay a few nights. The view on the second picture is exactly how I remember the view from our site, it was so wonderful and peaceful...

 

 

The Golden Pond Visitor Centre housed an interesting exhibit of life before modern times: the words on the panel describe this andmy not so young readers maybe remember similar circumstances where they grew up, at least I do, having grown up in the post war years in Amsterdam...

 

 

 

Although the picture is somewhat yellowish due to the artificial light in the visitor's centre, it reflects the mood of those days, the old fashioned fabrics of the quilt included!

 

That was it from me today, we are off to have lunch (almuerzo) in one of the lovely Spanish restaurants and a musical meeting at our club afterwards.

 

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day!
