I text Sam last week. He’s working on sketches.

I'm at land between the lake right now and I nominate Gray Point for a camp location. Freaking beautiful and the road in is just rough enough to keep the nomadlanders out.
Ginger bay is larger, has a better road to it, and actually has some light wheeling possibilities
Just some random abandoned plantation where I stopped for lunch.
Headed 35 minutes east of LBL to Casey Jones distillery. They are wide open on Saturday the 21st, but couldn't talk about Friday, as the lady who coordinates weekdays was on vacation
Went ahead and grabbed something while I was there and am enjoying it now.

Picked up a map of Turkey Bay OHV park. Think you might be able to keep busy for a day or so in that.
So... some more details about LBL.
Here's the most recent Motor Vehicle Use Map I could find.
There are three opportunities for fuel. One in Aurora, west of LBL on Hwy 68/80. One east of LBL, also on 68/80. South of LBL in Big Rock on Hwy 79. Aurora was pretty much wiped out during COVID, so little else is there.
There are small shopping opportunities (Dollar Generalish) in all three directions.
There is a decent BBQ shack in Aurora and a McDonald's in Big Rock and several places in Dover, which is east on 79, near the Fort Donelson battlefield.

Thanks man!
Here are the event graphics for the SSS '23! I'll be putting the product page up on Ace Overland soon, and share the link when everything is ready for pre-order!
I may offer some Print-On-Demand products such as wall banners, poster prints, or coffee cups, etc. If you are interested in something like that, tell me below! These would be made on a case by case basis by another company other than myself, but it does allow me to offer some cool things with the SSS artwork on it. The t-shirts and decals I'll still handle myself, as always.
I am also considering offering Long Sleeve in Adult sizes (youth sizes in long sleeve are questionable, unless I can find the right quality shirt).

You realize half of Land Between the Lakes is in Tennessee, right?

those graphics are awesome! I absolutely would want a poster for the shop!
Some sweet piggie shirts, I am all in
I do! But a bourbon theme was requested, so I was just following the design brief.
Bourbon lover here. but no dog in this hunt. You might listen to "Tennessee Whiskey" first done by David Allan Coe, then George Jones and lately Chris Stapleton.
Realize I might be starting a product battle involving regional pride. I have a friend, a California wine snob, who swears his home county makes superior vino. "Napa is for auto parts, Sonoma is for wine" according to him.

And you knocked it out of the park!
Fair enough, I'm not biased to KY bourbon or Tn whiskey - I love them all. When I spoke to Clay, he said Kentucky, LBL, so I ran with that.
I suggest a return to LBL for a future Soiree, and it be TN Whiskey themed. A compromise of sorts.
Just gonna have to do all things Kentucky this trip, then Tenn the next.
