Day #76 - Decaturville, TN
October 15th, 2008
Warm, sunny morning at Pebble Isle. Had a quiet evening last night after an exhilarating ride into New Johnsonville, TN and another trip to Walmart with Bob and Charlotte for necessities.
There was a full moon last night and and quite a bit of wildlife around. Herons and turtles are abundant and the weather continues to be amazing.
Taking off for Kelly’s anchorage later this morning. Our two boats will anchor there for the night. Rumor has it that internet and cell connection get tougher and tougher from here to Mobile. That has been obvious to family and friends trying to call and getting poor reception on my end. Please keep trying…we LOVE to hear from you.
As Captain Andy was doing his morning maintenance in the engine room he discovered that the port alternator bracket had come apart and our alternator was just dangling. Fortunately for us, a bolt had fallen out and wedged itself behind the alternator and held it in place. Way to go Captain!

You are really having a great trip. Unbelievable, Thus far it looks like the worst thing that has happened is the alternator issue.
Thanks again for sharing the photo’s and experiences.
Weather is changing in South Haven I fear that winter is just around the corner.
