We had another interesting night at anchor. Around midnight we woke up and John went out to check on things. Our anchor was fine. However, the boat that was anchored behind us had their anchor let go and they drifted back on the boat behind them. He reset his anchor and most of us went back to sleep (not John).
It had rained during the night, but the morning was cool and cloudy, but not raining and not foggy. We left our cozy Three Rivers Anchorage at 7:00 A.M. We saw a raccoon swimming in the river. I'd never seen that before.
Coming through Mobile Bay was intense. It made me feel so tiny and insignificant. There are so many barges, tugs, and freighters moving about. My mouth hung open (no wisecracks) in awe of all the commerce and activity. It was amazing.
We arrived at Eastern Shores Marine, Inc. in Fairhope, AL. "Finally", "CC Manhatten", and "Theresa" are here with us. Norm and Sue drove from Ft. Myers to accompany us on the next leg of the trip across the Gulf. However, we are taking tomorrow off and going into Fairhope to investigate. It is so good to see them and spend time with them.
