Saturday, October 20th - End of This Leg

We departed at 0800 for Aqua Yacht Harbor, Iuka, Mississippi.  Today’s trip will be 42 miles and no locks.  The morning was pretty calm and sunny, which was great considering how bad yesterday had been.  Arrived uneventfully at Aqua Yacht Harbor and found out from Dock Master Jason what slip we were to leave JULI-IV in.  These docks are huge. 

We pulled into our slip and prepared the boat for a month or so stay.  We retrieved the dinghy from the car and assembled/inflated it.  I had to test it by rowing it around between the docks.  I now see where Jessica got her rowing ability.   We tidied up the boat and made ready to depart back to Kansas the next day. 

 We will return during December to continue the trip down the Tom Bigbee Waterway to Mobile Bay and then a side trip to Lake Pontchartrain and New Orleans.
