Easier than checking the site.

We have had some requests to put up a Google Map that displays our location. We’ll give it a try and see what happens.

Last night we spent anchored in a small cove, just outside Joe Wheeler State Park. Very pretty bay, with a view of the river.

It was a chilly night with a  beautiful sunrise.

It got down to 40 degrees, so we had the genny and heat going this morning. We even saw some wildlife along the river banks.

Today we will move over to our slip at Joe Wheeler for the AGLCA Loopers Rendezvous. This is four days of classes on about anything you want to know about the Great Loop. It will also be good to meet some more Loopers. There is talk of a “Dinghy Race”, so Pat is ready to rumble! 

Two days ago, at Goose Pond, we heard a loud “hissing” noise we could not figure out. A few minutes later, a hot air balloon flew right over us. How colorful!

Our side trip up the Tennessee was a real highlight! It is definitely a wonderful cruising ground. We would like to go back there some day when we can spend more time.

But then, I suspect we will be saying that about many other areas in the next months. After the Rendezvous, we will be heading back down to Grand Harbor marina at MM 215 on the Tennessee, and pick up the Tenn Tom to Mobile Bay. We’ll see you in  few days!!!
