Dog River Marina: Happy Father's Day! We arrived at the marina around 11:00am today. After all lines were secured, electrical hooked up we settled in. Before we left Corpus, Jess bought us two boat bikes (they fold up and store very easily on the boat). Well, today...I starting hosing down the boat and Jess had put the bike on the dock. Now picture this all slow motion.....I am moving the hose, hose hits the bike...bike starts to fall....I'm screaming....Chuck runs over and is grabbing for the bike....Jess is inside the boat....hears me scream...runs out...bike goes down. I felt sick to my stomach. Jess and Chuck tried to find it with long poles....too deep. Jess went to the marina store and came back with a grapler. It worked and the bike was retrieved. Big lesson learned.
We will be here for 10+ days. Chuck has generator and port engine problems. This will be a good time for us to restock, run necessary errands and take care of boat chores.
The trip has been incredible and it's only the beginning. Very beautiful country from the water view. We will update again when we head up the Tenn-Tom Waterway (to Kentucky).
Love to all
Jess & Cindy
