DAY 21 - October 22, 1923

 All photos can be clicked on for a larger version.




Dennis began the day at the Clifton United Methodist Church. About 25 are in attendance each Sunday. They are undergoing a rebranding and as of the beginning of November will be known as Clifton Fellowship. Everyone was very friendly and I was able to share a bit about my home church with them during announcements.

Denise took this parting photo of Clifton Marina as we were leaving a little after noon.

The Kentucky Lake has narrowed into a more typical Tennessee River. There are lots of cliffs and rock structure lining the water.

There are some absolutely beautiful "mansions" along the river. Some don't even look like single family homes because they are so large.



We passed by what appeared to be white chairs and a wedding arch, along with tables for an open air reception. Using my telephoto lens I was able to zoom in from 3/4 of a mile away and actually see the bride and groom posing for pictures.


We anchored for the night in this tranquil setting next to Wolf Creek, which is next to the city of Savannah, Tennessee. A little after dark another looper boat anchored about 100 yards from us.

This Great Blue Heron was looking for a meal along the shore near us. This one wasn't as blue, (or even blue at all) as the ones we see around Cincinnati. Even though, this is indeed a Great Blue Heron.



At the anchorage, we were treated to two Bald Eagles vocalizing back and forth for about 20 minutes. Earlier in the day we saw a bald eagle flying toward us as it picked up a fish near the surface of the water and flew away with its prey.
