We are in Grafton Illinois, and I will not put our co-ordinates on again for a while since we will be staying here at least until Sunday, possibly Monday. Our next stop is Hoppies and they are not able to accept us until Sunday night at the earliest so we decided to stay here for the next week.
I talk about the Pinta and the Nina the other day. I had not gotten a picture of them. This morning at 6:30 I looked out the window and there they were stealthily passing by us. It was still dawn and the black of the boat against the black of the trees, they were barely visible. A little while later, say around 8am, we passed them on the river. Then when we arrived in Grafton, they pulled into the same marina. They are literally docked right beside us. So no worries about getting a picture now.
The run down here was magnificent today. Very few tow barges and lots of fisherman. The river is so calm and the current running just right, we did 80 miles today and where still her by 3pm. I took a few pictures of some boats today. 1 I posted of a couple of guys fishing, the other boat was not doing so well.
Well it is time to say goodnight, Enjoy your evening.
