Kentucky Vacation

Last summer I went to Lake Cumberland in Kentucky for a vacation. It was my first vacation in five years. I've been dyeing and begging my dad for a vacation for a long time and I finally got it! I really wanted to go camping, because I haven’t been camping since I was seven, but going to Kentucky was good. What was also great was that I got to take Conner (boyfriend) with me! Don’t worry my dad is super protective.
My dad is a busy man especially with his new business he has, it’s a tire shop, he there 24/7 and it makes me mad when that’s all he thinks about. We were supposed to leave at noon on Friday so we had all day there to enjoy because we were only staying there until Sunday night. We didn't leave until 9’o clock because he was working at the tire shop. So we finally go there at midnight but we all didn't to bed until two in the morning. Where we stay at was a really nice small log cabin that sat on a cliff near the edge of Lake Cumberland. The view was beautiful but scary at the same time plus there was woods surrounding us as well.
It was Saturday morning and I want to leave and go enjoy the day a do something but I had to wait for my dad to moving, before we left Ohio he promised me he wouldn't be on his phone or doing anything work related, but what does he do he gets on his phone doing work. We didn't leave the cabin until 4’o clock, I was so mad because I didn't want to spend my whole day there, so we ended up hiking the cliff near the cabin and went sit seeing around the lake. Later that day Conner and I went down to lake and drove my uncle’s jet ski around the lake for an hour but a storm came and we had to stop and get out of the lake. When we pulled up to the dock my dad was nowhere to be found, it was lightening and thundering with phones just standing at the dock holding onto the Jet Ski waiting for him. He finally came 30 minutes later it made us mad.

Sunday was the same exact day as Saturday only we got to a giant water fall it was amazing and big I was practically standing right next to it. We also got to visit a historic battlefield. Before we left we visited my uncle and he showed me a couple pictures of him with the Turtle Man off of “Call of the Wildman.” I was jealous because I love his show and I would have loved to see him as well.  So we left Kentucky at 9’o clock and didn't get home until midnight. I was so tired but I still had lots of fun and I was glad we went and I can’t wait until we go again.

  1. HAven't been to Lake Cumberland in years but love it there. I'm sorry your pops was working but lucky you had Conner (very lucky, my dad still questions whether I should be able to take my husband on vacation with us or not!).
