Day #85 - Rogersville, AL
October 24th, 2008The wonderful AGLCA 2008 Rendezvous is over. We had a wonderful time and fun was had by all. One of our highlights was the dinghy race.
We entered along with Foreign Exchange and Kismet among others. The key was that you had to have the captain blindfolded and drive backwards, stern first. We laughed so hard we thought we were going to explode. The other highlight was that in one of the evening drawings, Andy won a free week stay at Orchid Bay in the Abacos, Bahamas. NICE!
It rained and rained today and we decided to stay in Rogersville one more day. Ten of us rented a fifteen passanger van and went into Hunstville. Our first stop was the US Space and Rocket Center. Very interesting and informative.
After that, a lunch stop and…Walmart, as usual. Loaded all of our stuff into the “Senior Van” as Andy called it and back to the marina. A ton if fun, a lot of laughs and a great group.
Back on the move in the morning as soon as the fog lifts headed to Grand Harbor in Counce, TN. That area is where Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi all meet. We will be retracing about 60 miles and two locks to get back from where we turned off to come to the Rendezvous and entering the Tennessee Tombigbee River. Another adventure awaits.
