Dog River Marina (second day) - 11/20/10



Second day at Dog River Marina was mostly a work day. We slept in a little late and the chef (captain) made breakfast for the first mate, again. Shortly after breakfast we were informed that Stan (Next Endeavour) had dropped his cell
phone overboard so off I went to see if I could help. After several attemps with a fishing net strapped to 2 expanding poles to reach bottom, we were unsuccessful. Another boater on the dock offered a high powered magnet so we tied 2 lines to it so we could work it between the dock and boat bow. Long story short, we latched on to the leather enclosed belt clip and hauled it in carefully. After clean up and flushed out ... it didn't work but since it was practically new and supposed to withstand this type of treatment, the company is going to replace it. The afternoon was spent installing the new blinds in the boat that Ricki ordered from Lowes in Rogersville, AL and had them sent here. Later that night we enjoyed adult beverages on our boat to celebrate our friendship and traveling together for the past couple weeks. Stan and Colleen are leaving us and heading for Texas tomorrow and we will certainly miss them. We then went across the river to the Mariner Restaurant where we had a wonderful meal.
