We have slipped out of Kentucky Dam Marina and headed on up towards home. The people at
We got in about 20-25 miles this afternoon, it felt good to be back underway. The boat needs to be moving. We ran aground this evening, well sort of anyway. We were checking the charts for a place to drop the hook and this little cove looked promising. We snuck up on it with me at the controls and Lionel reading off the depth sounder. Well the bottom came up kind of fast, it went from 20 to 1 in about a boat length and she came to a stop, 120 tons of steel dead in the water. I put her in reverse but nothing happened, then I applied the throttles and kicked up a plume of mud but she backed off and we swung around and anchored a little further out. All is well.
Patrick is doing up some southwest chicken for dinner w/ pudding for dessert, a little wine and we are good to go. Mike from

It Sounds like you've been through a lot so far. And I miss my father's cooking. (This is Patrick). He's a great cook indeed. :) Like I used to tell him when we'd finish the first half of our morning walks, it's all downhill from here. =) Keep smiling and have fun. 8-)
