This is the third time that I am writing this. Did I tell you that we have a new Hotspot using our phone? Guess there is a learning curve.
We are still in Columbus, MS and will be here another 2 plus weeks, until Dec 2. We plan to travel with our friends Randy and Sherry from Michigan. We have been watching and planning around the big crossing of the gulf. We will be traveling over night from Appalachacola to Tarpon Springs, FL. We will be watching "Eddie's Weather Wag" for recommendations about when it is safe to cross. We met Eddie at the Rendezvous. He is a retired Air Force pilot turned boater. A really wonderful guy.
It has been fun to see all the Loopers come in here but sad to say good bye when they leave the next day. Some we know and some we are meeting for the first time. I keep thinking we are the last and then another group comes in.
Last week I went with a group to see the Waverly Mansion. It was built in the 1840's and spared by the Civil war because it was so far south of Shiloh, TN and Corinth, MS. Not even Sherman came this far south. It sat empty for 50 years in the early 1900's and was bought by a family in the 1960's and brought up to modern standards. They also filled it with period antiques. Now the daughter and her family live there and open it up to tourists. Pretty fun side trip.
Always more to come.
