February 26, 2018 - Paducah

Today we left Ft Campbell and headed for Paducah, KY.  We decided to take a little tour along the way and headed more west first to see the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area.  It is located west of Ft Campbell and is between Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake.  It is a popular spot for tourists in the summer season however it was quiet today. 

 One of the popular attractions is the Elk and Bison Prairie.  The area is fenced in, covering about 700 acres.

 Daffodils already popping up through the snow.

 Grammie finally got to the National Quilt Museum.  They don't allow pictures in the Museum.


 The Ohio is quickly approaching Flood stage and expected to peak on Wednesday.  The floodgates have already been installed and will protect the city up to 49 feet.  Whether the city will flood is iffy right now. We will be gone early on Tuesday heading towards Memphis, however more rain is expected. 
 Grammie had a good day.  So didn't Tom.  With all the new fabric, Tom has some golf credits built up.
Tomorrow, we are headed towards Memphis.
