Friday, September 18, 2009

We left the marina at 7:15. The sun was coming up and there was wispy fog over the water. Quite cool and we all were bundled up in sweatshirts. By the end of the day though, it was hot. Lots of pelicans and eagles. A very scenic part of the Mississippi. The river continues to widen. Nancy drove the boat through her first lock and passed her first tow!!! Teri drove the boat for the first time and also passed her first tow!!! We celebrated later with champagne given us by the friendly staff of Lonsdale Family Dental Clinic. Today we tried rotating on 2 hours shifts. Worked well. Arrived in Dubuque, Iowa around 4 p.m
