Getting Ready

We slept well on our first night. This morning we are off early to return the rental car in Florence AL. The marina loaned us a pickup truck for the day to use after we dropped off the rental car. We went to Walmart to buy groceries. Knowing that we would only be at marinas the first two nights of our trip,we bought enough to cook for several nights. The week's menu will include steak,chicken,chili and pot roast. Cereal for breakfast and sandwiches for lunch. We should eat well all week.   We spent most of the afternoon at the boat with Rick Rogers from Rogers Marine Surveyors. Rick went over all of the boat's systems and operations. He was incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful.We both learned a lot. When we finished our work we went back to Cactus Jack's to watch the Alabama/Georgia game. Jeff the owner was very friendly. We met some very nice football fans.Everyone is very helpful. Tomorrow we start our journey down the Tenn Tom to Mobile. We will travel over 450 miles in the next eight days. Lights out 9:00PM.
