Grand Rivers, KY - September 15, 2008

The cold front came through during the night. It felt good to wake up during the night and need more covers. Today is overcast, but no rain. Darrell washed the boat and did some more maintenance. Beth worked inside the boat.

The electricity is still out both here in the marina and in town. There is no definite word yet as to when it will be fixed. Some hear today sometime and others have heard it will be 2-3 days.

We are very fortunate that we are off the river systems. The heavy rain from Hurricane Ike is causing problems and severe flooding in many of the areas we traveled last week. There are many looper boats behind us and we hear via e-mail that they will be staying where they are for several more days.

Along with Sandy and Jim from Passport we are getting the courtesy van late afternoon. We will be going into Paducah to do some shopping. We will also find a nice place to eat.
