The
rain began early this morning and continued off & on most of the day slowing
down just a little bit ago. We are glad to be tied at a dock with
electricity as the temps are dropping fast...gonna be down in the 40s
here tonight!
When
we arrived yesterday we docked right across from a couple we met last
May in Norfolk, Bob & Ginny Roche. They call Savannah home so we
didn't expect them to be on their boat but there they were! They
have finished the Loop but had rented their house for 3 years so they
are still living on this little boat. Yes...they did the whole Loop
in this 32 foot boat!
They
only have a two foot draft so they were able to go places we couldn't. However, they did run aground one time due to not watching the
channel markers. They graciously dropped me at a mall so I could walk about 4 miles inside today. Then Ginny & I got together this
afternoon to share our loop adventures...fun.
Before
I headed back to our boat this afternoon I snapped a picture of
“Humbug”, a cute Nordic Tug. This is Peter and Carolyn's boat. We met them in Alton, MS on the Mississippi River. They will
complete the Loop at their home in Rhode Island.
Glad
for a forecast day of sunshine and no rain tomorrow. We plan to
drop the lines early for a long run up the ICW.
