Life on Lake Barkley After The Ice Storm of the Decade



Here is what our front yard looks like from the hot tub area of the cabin

From Tranquilla II on the Back of Eddy Creek - Lake Barkley -- We are so grateful that life at Lake Barkley is slowly getting back to some resemblance of normality yet it will never be the same here. Our lot down to the lake has about 41 piles of brush to be burned or hauled off and we have another 30 plus trees that will have to be removed.

It is as if some giant's kid got mad and went through the neighborhood just snapping the tops out of every tree. None came through unharmed and yet the redbuds and dogwoods are slowly blooming now.

Today, we had severe storms. A tornado touched down in the northern part of the county. Two injured and a mobile home destroyed. This my friends is spring time in Kentucky. Stay around long enough up here and you get any kind of weather you could want.

Since today is Good Friday we send all our friends and colleagues best wishes for Easter. We hope you have a safe and enjoyable weekend with all your families.

Love, peace and grace, Dr. D
