Paris to Cuba in One Day


Tennessee, that is.

Friday, November 3 and Saturday, November 4, 2023

Paris Landing

Friday, November 3, we leave Green Turtle Bay for Paris Landing, a state park in Tennessee on Kentucky Lake.

Reminds me of the rockers in front of a Cracker Barrel restaurant

Finally we reconnect with Tracy and George on Done Saving and Donna and Doug on Hattitude. They did a five-day side trip to Nashville and loved it.

We also meet up with several other Loopers. We are all headed south.

This is a nice little marina – would have enjoyed staying longer.

The State Park is beautiful.

The voyage on Kentucky Lake to Cuba Landing is a pretty one – stately homes, vibrant foliage.

We arrive Cuba Landing marina.

All Looper boats take slips here. We decide to anchor.

Sunshine anchored just outside the marina.

We witness a stunning sunset with Sunshine gleaming in the glow.

The Buoys all lined up, watching the sunset.

We hear an engine, look out our windows, and here comes George and Tracy on their dinghy.  We are thrilled to see them and glad they made the trip over to our boat.

After a couple of hours of friendly fun and catching up, darkness descends. We lend them a spotlight and they motor back to their boat.

We are off to bed – tomorrow morning we will journey to Swallow Bluff Island to anchor out with Paradise, Done Saving, and Hattitude.
