Sunday, April 28,2019 - Cumberland River to Sugar Bay Anchorage, Tennessee River mm 36

We traveled back down the Cumberland today and over to the Tennessee River. We encountered 3 tows and only one was going our direction, which required our passing them. The day was gloomy and grey until after noon when the sun came out.  Then it was still chilly...but at least sunny!

Tomorrow we mosey on up the river towards home...with a stop for fuel at Pebble Isle Marina.  Tomorrow is predicted to be much warmer. ;-) And, we have a phone signal again!!!

And now for a few photos from yesterday and today.  First is a view as we approached our anchorage last night, entrance on the right. The land square on in the photo is the Fort Donelson National Battlefield.

When I describe the difference in the channels of the Tennessee River and the Cumberland, the charts show a clear example.  The Tennessee River is the large white swath across lower left corner.  The Cumberland is the narrow white line with triangle markers along side to the right of Land Between the Lakes.  Clear as mud yet?  ;-)

Looking out from our anchorage tonight to the main channel of the Tennessee River...

And a shot of the back of the Sugar Bay anchorage....  Nice!
