We are on the move again. Feels good even if it is overcast and cold. The leaves have finally turned colors down here.
We spent last night on the hook or as you land lubbers call it, on anchor. It was beautiful and so quiet. Took Abby the boat dog into the landing in the dinghy. All was well with the world.
Then the sun went down. It got really cold. We started the new generators which was helpful but loud. Turned on the inverter but we are having problems with one of our brand new batteries so had to limit that. We were able to have all the essentials including tv. But had to turn things off when we went to bed. So it got pretty cold during the night. We actually went to bed quite early. 7pm for Dick and 8pm for me. We were up at 4am cause we had to take Abby to shore and get ready to head for the lock by 6:30am. It was very cold so rushing helped to warm us up. It was cold until at least noon. Our poor dog sat inside shaking all morning. She almost fell off the back of the boat this morning. Luckily she only got one foot wet.
We saw some beautiful white cliffs on the way. Had a train go right over our head at the same time. Very loud.
We are now in Demopolis, AL. We are in a marina again and all are warmed up again. Tomorrow night we will probably be on the hook again. Few marinas at this point. More to come.
