Sunday, October 9

We anchored in the lake (no marina) every night until last night.  This morning we took advantage of the water hook-up at the dock and cleaned the boat!  It wasn't as bad as I expected.  No marina spiders makes a  BIG difference!

Our excitement for the day was a visit from Carol Downs, her daughter, Amy, and grandchildren, Scarlett and Solomon.  Carol was our across-the-street neighbor in Jasper, AL, 36 years ago, and gets much of the credit for my loving Jasper so much (along with the Gunn family).   She got me into all kinds of things, all good!  She is a CPA in Jasper in practice with her son, JoMo.  Amy, also an accountant, and her kids live in Birmingham.  We had such a good time catching up.  So many of the people I remember are still in town, and if they had moved, Carol knew where they are now.  Connecting with friends and family along the Loop is going to be awesome.  Watch out, we may be coming your way.

We went back to the Hard Dock Cafe to get tuna burgers, which were wonderful, and watched part of the UGA South Carolina game, but without sound.  We had hoped to watch the last part on the boat with our own refreshments, but the satellite wouldn't work, so we had to follow updates on the Internet.
