HOME AGAIN

The five hour drive from Columbus, MS to Murfreesboro was a piece of cake compared to the trips to Indiantown, FL or even St.Pete.  The trip to Columbus was great.  We moved the boat around 700 miles and did in in under a month.  We only had one breakdown and that was my fault for using a fuel tank that I knew had bad fuel in it. We were able to drop anchor and bleed the lines and get back underway and didn't even loose our place in line.  A fast boat passed us while we were sitting at anchor.  He ask if we needed help.  I told him we were charging our batteries and should be under way soon.  About two hours later we found the fast boat waiting at a lock.  He used all that fuel to get to the same placed at the same time we did.  You just never know on the river.  It seems a commercial tow had the lock in use and the fast boat had to wait.  Lifestyle II has a new home for a while and we can save up some money for the next leg of our trip back to TTennessee which we hope to make before the fall leaves change completely.  This will be our last BLOG for a while.  We will send out a message when we start our next leg so you can follow the fun along with us.
