September 24 / Day 126 / Paducah

Paducah is a brand new marina which just opened three days ago. 

That said, we awoke to may flies all over Observer - oh Joy. Tried hosing them off the boat but they just moved around and landed somewhere else.

A police office stopped by the marina to say hello to the Loopers and tell us about his future interest in doing the Loop.  He gave me information on a great bike trail nearby which I jumped on about a 1/2 hour later.

It was a very warm day and the May flies were still buzzing around so it was more of a 'stay in with the AC on kinds of day'.  Paducah is a decent little town; we did find out that there really is not a place to re-provision close by so we held off on that.  We strolled into town and had a nice dinner.

 

The town has constructed a flood wall along the shore front and local artists have pained it with murals

Paducah check!
