About this Blog

I used try to limit entries in this blog to boating related actives and overall things kind of moved to Facebook. Now back here after selling Degae, but continuing to travel. Stay tuned.

Warsaw Kentucky to Louisville Kentucky

The trip from Warsaw, Kentucky to Louisville, Kentucky took six hours, mostly owing top operating at reduced speed in order not to wake the numerous boats that were enjoying this beautiful Sunday.

The shoreline was beginning to take on fall colors, the water having a blue-green quality and cliffs overlooking the river in the Madison Indiana area. Truly a beautiful day.

Several options for moorage in Louisville included Captains Quarters, Louisville Boat Club and Limestone Marina. We were fortunate to be able to overnight at Captains Quarters, arranged by a mutual friend. In addition, we enjoyed a wonderful meal at Captains Quarters with guests John and Connie Emmerich.

One cannot be impressed with the amount of boating activity in Louisville, even this late in the season. The river is wide (lake like) with interesting areas to beach (18 mile and 12 mile island).
Tomorrow will be a longer day, with the goal of completing around 112 miles

I am possibly more excited about this "little endeavor" than all of you combined. With any luck, I may even get an invite or two while the Hopper's are wintering in Longboat. Honk when you float past my house! Safe travels.
