Ready to Go!

Diane, Mom, Jenny, and Me

This past Wednesday, I took our van home to store it for the foreseeable future. That night I spent overnight at my Mom's. Thursday morning, my two sisters picked us up and we drove back to Kentucky Dam Marina. Jenny, Diane, and Mom spent Thursday through Sunday here. They took a room at the lodge. We ate a lot, we went to the Bar-B-Q Festival in Paducah on Friday, we went out for a breakfast cruise on Saturday morning and then to see the show "Variety" at the Badgett Theater in Grand Rivers. Every night we played cards at the lodge in the lobby. It was so nice to be together and I miss them all already. It's going to be Christmas time before we see our family and friends at home again.

Tomorrow we are casting off our lines and heading out. Preparations have been completed. Food, fuel, water, clean clothes, and charts have all been loaded aboard. We plan on traveling slowly on the way to Joe Wheeler State Park. We have enjoyed our time here this summer, but we are anxious to get moving again.
