Stormy Weather

This morning we awoke to a TORNADO WARNING here in Demopolis.  It passed over us quickly and here at the marina, we only experienced a heavy rain and a little wind.  Thank you, Lord for your continued protection!  After the storm, I took Maggie for her morning walk and could hear sirens in the directions of downtown Demopolis.  Apparently there was some wind damage downtown.

We went to visit John, Beth and the boys on Monday.  It was good to be away from the boat and on dry land for awhile and a sheer joy to visit with the Carter's.  Wes and Joe are so sweet and are growing up so fast.  We played "Gold Fish" as Joe called it until bedtime and Joe wanted to play more the next morning but he had to get to school.  I've promised to play more "Gold Fish" at Christmas. They enjoyed beating Neesy!

We are stocked up and all the clothes are washed again, thanks to John & Beth, and we plan to leave here in just a little while.  The package we've been waiting for here from West Marine didn't even ship until yesterday, so rather than wait 2 more days at $60.00 per day, we cancelled the shipment and are moving on.  The weather is clearing and skies are getting sunny.

There are no marinas between here and Fairhope, so we will continue the blog when we arrive there.
This picture is just another interesting view of the Tombigbee.  It looks like the White Cliffs of Dover on one bank and the Muddy Mississiippi on the opposite bank, and all designed for our enjoyment.  Oh, what a might God we serve!
