Well I finally made it to Joe Wheeler State Park on the Tennessee River. Got in here yesterday afternoon and low and behold, there was Chris (Last Tango) and his lovely wife. I had reserved a covered slip a while back, that was when I didn't know anything about river flooding and logs and trash and whatever. As I was pulling into my slip, I suddenly came to an abrupt stop. Half quizitive and half panicy, I couldn't understand what happened. Then someone said "its your crane". Another thing I just learned - ask how high the covered slip entrance is. So away we went, to a transient slip for the evening
Being the great guy that he is, Chris removed the crane for me. This morning I folded down my antennas and now am in my slip and Chris faded away into the mist. No tellin' where we will meet up again.


This really looks like a great place to spend the rest of the year.
