Mobile,AL On The Dog River

Sunday,11 Nov 07. Drive to church with a Looper couple from Maine. Shopping trip to Walmart. Saw our first palm tree at our Marina.

Monday, 12 Nov 07. Cleaned boat and dinghy to West Marine on the other side of the Dog River. Arvilla stayed in dinghy due to the 8 ft. climb up to the dock at low tide.

Tuesday, 13 Nov 07. Cleaned the boat. Dinghy to a lower dock near West Marine. Did 1 hour walk near West Marine, Dog River Marina, and Mobile Yacht Club. Too many loose dogs near our marina to do any walking.

Wednesday, 14 Nov 07. Rented a car and drove to New Orleans for the day. Toured mostly The French Quarter and the Garden District. Had lunch in a small place near Bourbon Street. Saw a lot of Katrina damage east of New Orleans on both sides of
I-10.

Thursday, 15 Nov 07. 0430 up in the dark to move dinghy out of the 30 mph north wind. Work on wheel house screen repair. Much too windy to dinghy to other side of river for our walk.

Joe and Arvilla
