UH-OH




We had hoped to get underway this morning. However, the marina manager (Fred) came around yesterday late afternoon and advised everyone to stay put for another week. It seems the flooding below the Demopolis Lock and Dam is significant. At Mobile, it is expected to be 33 feet over flood stage on Thursday. Another week..........oh, my! The good thing is we are safe and have grocery, laundry, water, and trash collection services. It would be ever so much more boring if we anchored out somewhere. All of the loopers' boats are soooo clean because there is nothing else to do.

Well, I'm sorry that you're stuck in Demopolis but remember what happened to us on our trip when Hurricane Dennis came through. The river was up 30+ feet and we tore up our running gear by not staying put........not worth it!!! Stay safe.....see you soon!
