Day 99 – Fort Loudon Marina to Blue Springs Marina - October 13, 2011

Today we began heading down the river.  We will actually be going down river now until we reach Mobile.  The weather was not great today – we had off and on rain showers all day long.  I spent lots of time rolling and unrolling the front windows.  My other job was using the squeegee and playing the part of human windshield wiper.  Other than the rain it was a relatively easy travel day.  Since we are going down river we got a little boost of speed from the current.
             Miles: 43.0      Bridges: 5        Locks: 1
we continue to enjoy the beautiful rock bluffs along the river

the true University of Tennessee fan - an orange boat,
the roof of the boathouse a white and orange checkerboard,
an orange porta-potty (at the top of the hill) and the "T"
carved in the lawn facing the river
