A Great Start on the Great Loop




Well, our primary blogger hit the sack early today and I am up watching the World Series with Willi. We left Riverstone Marina at 0800 today (about an hour delay due to fog) and arrived at Aqua Yacht Harbor in Iuka, MS around 1545. We passed by La Maison Rouge( our home at Tn River MM 172) around 0900 and honked at Billy and Judy Duck who were kind enough to take us to Rivertone last night. We traveled around 55 miles today and locked through Pickwick Lock this afternoon. Overall a great day and beautiful weather. Carolyn took lots of pics and hopefully will get them up tomorrow. We will be here 2 days and then move on down the Tenn-Tom.


Not a lot to say about the trip today as we have traveled this part of Tennessee River before. It was colorful and blue skies were with us all day...actully got rather warm this afternoon after starting out around 32 degrees.



Tough day for Willi getting adjusted to new surrondings but one day at a time..wait a minute ...I will let him speak for himself in a few days!

Thats it for tonight!
