Kentucky Dam State Park - Calvert City, KY

Pennyrile Lake
We are at the western terminus of our fall sojourn.  In planning our trip, I was trying to follow the Culinary Trail - Better in the Bluegrass.  There are nine state parks that are participating, but for some reason, I only planned for eight of them.  A quick search, and I realized that I had missed Pennyrile State Park.  So as luck would have it, at noon, in the rain, there was the sign for Pennyrile State Park, only 10 miles away.  It was a gorgeous little park, overlooking a gorgeous little lake, we drank strawberry lemonade,  with Burgoo for an appetizer, and BBQ mutton, with baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad.  Peach Cobbler for dessert.

Back on the road, into the rain, got to campground, waited for the rain to stop, went to dinner.  Of all the meals we have had, this was the least enlightened, we might have been more into it, if we weren’t still stuffed from lunch.  We did have a nice Kentucky Dam Iced Tea (not your mama’s ice tea...this one had bourbon in it).  Back at the campground, we got hooked up just before the rain.

Tomorrow, we head back east.
Pennyrile Lodge for lunch
