Hello from the beautiful Tenn-Tom (Tennesse and Tombigbee Rivers) Waterway! We anchored at Wolf Island and saw no wolves thank goodness. Pickwick Lake is where the Memphis' 1% lives. Beautiful, beautiful lake homes but no people. The estates were shuttered and everyone had moved on to wherever? Thank goodness they had left behind their homes for us to enjoy. As we left the Tombigbee canal we saw a line of rippling splashes in the water nearly all the way across the entry way into Spring Bay (lake) - in turned out we had to wait at the duck X-ing for hundreds of the little black ducks with white beaks. We are spending two nights anchored in McDougal Branch on the Tombigbee R. It is the loveliest place we have stayed, very peaceful and serene. We will be moving on tomorrow thru 3 locks, including the 84-foot Whitten. A piece of cake, for the 800-Dock vagabonds.
