The main lodge with our boats docked in front
|
Beautiful day here in Joe Wheeler State Park in Rogersville, Alabama. The lodge provided a shuttle for looper who wished to go into town, so took advantage of it this morning. Toured some nice gift shops, got some groceries. Returned to the boat for lunch. There was a wedding at the Lodge today, and it took place right off our back deck. Just happened that our boat is docked right behind where the minister stood, so we had better than front row seats. It was very nice, with several boaters watching. As the minister pronounced the couple man and wife, the boaters all blew their horns. The mother of the groom came over later to tell us how much they appreciated that.
We took the dinghy down, and toured the bay that the marina is in. Returned to the boat just in time to make our contribution to the group get together tonight. One couple provided shrimp for everyone, everyone else brought an appetizer, or some other part of the meal. We ended up with a wonderful meal, with the shrimp as the centerpiece. Good chance to meet some of the other people coming in for the rendezvous.
As we returned to the boat, saw a raccoon in the garbage can just down the dock. Apparently raccoons live just under the docks and often come out for garbage or even to board people’s boats. Wayne scared him off with a couple of pans, but he keeps coming back. Beautiful sunny day today, and the evening is still nice and warm, I was comfortable in shorts and sleeveless top. We’ve heard that there has been snow in some parts of Canada, so we are very happy to be in the warm weather.
