The Great Loop

This web site is an attempt to provide a quick and easy way for our family and freinds to keep up with us on "The Loop"

The Great Loop is a 6000 mile jouney down the Tennessee River and the Tombigbee Waterway to Mobile, Alabama. From there around the coast of Florida via Key West with a side trip to the Bahamas. Back to the coast of Florida we head up the east coast to the Chesapeake Bay. From the Chesapeake we continue up the east coast through New York Harbour, up the Hudon River, and across the Erie Canal. Through a series of canals we go across Lake Ontario into Canada. We will spend a month in Canada. Back to the US, we will cross Lake Michigan to Chicago. Following the Illinois, Mississippi, Ohio, and Cumberland Rivers back to Tennesse.


LOOP CLOSED: 8/12/09: 310 days, 6170 miles, 107 locks, 3 countries, 16 states, 85 different marinas, 10,050 gallons of diesel fuel, thousands of photos, countless new friends, and priceless memories...

Key Largo















T
The trip to Key Largo was a bit rough, we took the wind on the bow with a big chop ......but we made it thru the narrow canal with the rock jetty on our port side and the wind still alive and well! Once again she needed the salt washed off....and all the objects thrown about needed replaced to their home. Dinner was nice at Snooks...more seafood and a great sunset.....bike rides once again all over....but the pounds still prevale! This marina had 4 pools and I really
enjoyed the day there, while Jerry went diving with his cell phone in his pocket...always something interesting here!
