Dog River Marina (sixth day) - 11/24/10

Today I contacted our insurance carrier and advised them of the issues we had encountered and started the claim process. As I was walking around this morning I spotted our old props in the maintenance shop all shiny and looking good with our boat name written on them. Can't wait to get them on and get started again. Now if I can spot the rest of the stuff I will feel better. This afternoon we decided to take a ride towards Orange Beach, FL and Gulf Shores, FL again with the idea of looking at it now in order to get on by in the boat. Well ... we passed some places that looked interesting to the first mate including finding a Tangiers Outlet that, thank God, had just closed early for the holiday. Never did make it to the beach. So ... she declared we would return Saturday and on the way to the beach, you guessed it, stop at the outlet. I have only seen one other person in this world that can go thru a store and touch everything in it before leaving and her name shall remain confidential. Your secret is safe with me Dianne H. The towns we have driven thru the past couple days are so neat. They just seem to reach out and grab you with the clean look to the point that it makes you say "I could live here" except that it is so far from family and friends.

Tomorrow (Thanksgiving) will be celebrated in Fairhope, AL at the AGLCA Harbor Hosts' home along with 35 to 40 other loopers for dinner. It is supposed to be very warm here in the upper 70's which seems a little strange to us northern folks for Thanksgiving time.

We received some fantastic news from our oldest son on the way back to the boat. Thanks Jason and Jody. Now the pressure is on for your brother.
