The Eagle has Flown!
We are SO gone! Finally, with frogs and turtles and cats and dogs raining down, we left Blue Springs on Friday, Oct. 9. The weather cleared as soon as we hit the channel, and October's beauty has been all around. We did freeze our fannies off for a day or two, and we did have some rain, but to quote William, it does not suck. We spent a few days in Chattanooga with two of our three children and our two sweet grandbabies, then headed south again. We're now in Florence, AL for a day or two, then will head to Lee Spry Marina for some boat work (new bottom -- unfortunately, for the boat and not the crew) before we traverse the Tom Bigbee Waterway. We've been through 6 of the 18 locks necessary to reach salt water, and have settled into the traveling life we knew before.

ReplyDeleteYou might want to warn Rusty and Nancy about the car - the last time you left we were the proud owners of your van for 9 months!!! So glad you're on your way. I'm sure it's good to be the "admiral"!!
