Good Morning people! ok we had a great day yesterday, we made it from 473mm to mm 400. I was thinking oh man are we sailing til dark, because as you know thats Steves favorite time to anchor😅😅. Well we stopped 1.5 hours before dark and started checking out the abandoned pilons that used to be Fabius Barge Terminal that was inactive. you could tell by the small bushes growing out if some of the openings like skeletal fingers reaching out for help in the growing duskiness of the day! Sooo…i got a machette cut those fingers off, put 4 big fenders side by side and tied our big moose off in a springline to the loops on either side of those 6 foot wide steel bohemoth pilons. Barry and Andrea swung their sailboat Caretta around like Captain Ron braking a foot from our starboard side with a “whoosh” and we tied her off. Had a wonderful great tasting meal of leftovers from JD’s Gourmet Outdoor Grillin Kuntry Kitchen! With some help from those who brought in that awesome pans of grub. Went to bed at dark like my grandma and slept without any boat movement. Great tie offoff.
Woke up to a blanket of fog and did not get to leave until 9am. It was a beautiful day with lots of beautiful scenery painted just for us!

Denise, what is the URL of a good map of the rivers you and Steve are sailing?
A Golden Tail
A guy is driving around the back woods of Tennessee and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house:
“Talking Dog For Sale.”
He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard. The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Golden Retriever sitting there.
“You talk?” he asks.
“Yep,” the Retriever replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog speak, he says, “So, what’s your story?”
The Retriever looks up and says, “Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told them. In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running. But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn’t getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible stuff and was awarded a bunch of medals. I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I’m just retired.”
The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.
“Ten dollars,” the guy says.
“Ten dollars?! This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?”
“Because he’s a liar. He never did any of that stuff.”
