Made It To Paducah for Pre-Wedding Beers, Then To Our Hotel (Schitt's Creek Would be an Up-Grade). Slim Picking in These Parts, I Guess

Just two days. Just two days. Tunga's already online looking for another place to stay tomorrow night. I told him, "We are in the middle of nowhere and I picked the better of all evils." The plumbing works...what else does he want. 

This morning, we are meeting Sue and Dave at Land Between the Lakes and hiking in search of bald eagles. The wedding isn't until this evening, so we'll make the most of the day...and temperatures aren't even going to hit 90, which is a bonus. 

The beers at Dry-Ground Brewing were good, with several original IPAs. Definitely a good way to spend an evening.

We drove into the hotel late at night, and I'm unsure what we'll find outside in the morning. This is a part of KY that was hit hard by tornadoes a year or so ago. Just check out the devastation that NPR reported.

Ah, but we made it to the wedding day and a memorable trip. That is what matters most. 

And it is good to put money back into the local economy. Phew. It's hard to imagine how a town picks itself back up after a storm like that.
