Anxious to get moving

Today Mike and Linda Luti left to go home. We are going to miss them. They are wonderful traveling companions. They made it to Markland Dam by 2:00, but the last we heard, they were still there waiting to get through (that was around 6:00).

The guy from Kentuckiana came back after noon to work on the boat. We went for a sea trial around 5:15, but there was transmission fluid on the floor of the engine room when we got back. They determined that the leak we knew about is fixed, but there are some worn out O rings that need to be replaced. Therefore, he is coming back again in the morning. Hopefully, we will be pulling out of here about 10:00.

This afternoon, a homeless guy opened our side door to the boat. John asked if he could help him. The guy asked if our boat is for sale? John told him, "No." He went on his merry way. That was a little scary.
