Thursday Sept. 26

Priorities is tied up at a dock at Louisville Landing Marina. Randy spent about 4 hours replacing a water pump for the AC unit that went out on us. We ordered it a week ago and had it sent to our friends (Jim and Karen) in Knoxville. Jim took off work early and came down so we visited with him and met some of the people from the marina. Very nice, generous people. As the saying goes it’s not what you know but who you know! Well it seems Jim and Karen are the people to know. The Harbor Master gave us a discount on our dockage and another friend of theirs (who was going to be out of town for a week) gave us his Porsche to use during our stay.

The marina has a restaurant on site so we went there with Jim, Karen, George, and Gracie (George and Gracie live on their boats at the marina) for dinner.

The fog really set in during the night. We were glad we didn’t have plans to move on.

 
 This is what the view should be without the fog.
 

After breakfast it was time to go to town for some supplies. Out came the Porsche keys, it was time for a ride. Randy needed some prescriptions filled so the first stop was Walgreens. Then it was on to Wal-Mart for the rest of our supplies. (Thank goodness for our GPS which was my retirement gift from Gentex). Before going back to the boat we stopped by a little park near the marina and went for a walk to get some exercise. Tonight will be some more visiting and eating dinner with our friends.
