We had reserved several campsites in the Mousetail Landing State Park Spring Creek Campground for the weekend. Friday afternoon we kayaked the Tennessee River and saw a couple of barges going down the river. Saturday we hiked the 8-mile Eagle Point Loop trail in the park led by Kelly Parker, the president of the Mousetail Park friends group. Saturday evening as the sun was setting, we paddled Lick Creek from our campsite. Sunday we hiked the 2.6-mile round trip to Lady's Bluff in the TVA Small Wild Area. We had great weather and a nice breeze camping by the river. This was a joint event with the Highland Rim chapter. Hikers from five different chapters (Highland Rim, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Sumner Trails, and Soddy Daisy) were Joe Campbell, Wayne Drown, Chuck Deen, Patty Deen, Jane Ellett, Joan Hartvigsen, Mark Hubbard, Sara Pollard, Marietta Poteet, John Ruth, and Paulo Smith.
