More locks, bridges and friendly lock masters and locals as they help us thru the locks. It is really nice that the locks usually have people watching the boats as they fish...or they may drive over just to say "Hello..Welcome ...Where ya' from?"....sometimes lending great tidbits of info on where to go ...what to see and where to beware of rough and shallow waters.....Thank you guys so very much for making us feel so at home. 
Guard gates can be intimidating....
Believe it or not....we have not lost the radar on top to any of the bridges yet.......it rained on us today as we eased down the waterway......but still an enjoyable day of boating......and a sence of accomplishment as we get more locks and bridges behind us!
New friends on their beautiful ROVING SEAS....Brian and Jan from are doing the "Down East LOOP" ......true water lovers they seem happy to be back on the boat! Today was her birthday.....they stopped by for a glass of wine and later joined us for music......we hope to see you along the way and so enjoyed your company!
Again....meeting special people is really what this trip has turned out to be all about! Our Canadian friends...just bought their boat on ebay sight unseen and are taking her home to Canada. They do this often and enjoy the boating as well as the different boats! We joined them at Holly Rock for music and dollar beer! Again....giving us some valuable info about the waters in the area....that we are so unfamiliar with....Thank you and see you soon!
Rick and Julie...from Syracuse New York ...enjoy their boat and the area on week ends. We had seen them dancing at "Yesterday's Royal", a great little place with really good music....something different nightly....Rick and Julie showed their talent....man it makes you want to take lessons...Thanks guys ...you have inspired us! We met up with them again at The Pancake House.....what a great breakfast spot.
We are docked at the wall (free docking)...but the lilies are just beautiful ....this is what I have seen all week end from my galley window.....
As you can see this is a popular weekend spot.....more so when the weather is sunny...
