April 22

The boaters put in another long day and last I heard they were grilling brats at an anchorage somewhere on the Tennessee/Tombigbee Waterway (mile marker 277 for you boaters familiar with those parts).   They went thru 2 locks today (9 more to go) and covered 152 miles - those guys are a'truckin!!!!!
Here are a few photos from their travels yesterday.

Cruising past Mobile, Alabama
The white paint indicates how high the water level was from the flood of April 1979

Other interesting sites along the way...

I enjoyed a quiet day at home!    Read, did some e-mails, took a walk and stopped to smell the lilacs (hmmm....heavenly).   My big accomplishment today was sitting on the bottom step and bending over to tie my tennies!   Tah Dah!!!!
Arm/shoulder are aching today/tonight - rain is coming and now I'm letting you all know!   HA!    Amazing how that works!!!   Rain will be most welcome, but we sure have had several picture-perfect spring days in a row.   Have some of this springtime beauty in our front yard - love those bleeding hearts.
