    Cool old video of an OLD road at Lake Cumberland

    Driving Northbound on OLD US highway 27 at Burnside KY. This road, and what remains of the town, has been under the waters of Lake Cumberland since the Mid 1950's, when the lake was created. Repairs on the Wolf Creek dam has caused the water level to be lowered, exposing this hidden road from the past.

    Old postcards from burnside

    Since we are on memory lane, not that I was there, much, but makes you just kind think about the days gone by when a 14' aluminum vhull with a Johnson 25 was a pretty good ski boat and a real nice fishin boat. Still is a good fishin boat if you can find a used one.

    Peter I spent about thirty years in a 14ft aluminum v bottom with a 15hp Johnson....Got a bigger boat now but man I miss the simplicity of operating it.Not to mention the gas lol.
