There is a lock ahead of us that has limited access
(after 5:00 pm) until 9/12 but it is open this weekend through Tuesday, so we
are headed that way. We left this morning
with 2 other Loopers and made it through our one lock today without delay. The water is low in the Illinois and access
to today's marina is limited to boats with 3'6" draft (that's what we
have). We went over a little mud on the way in but made it safely into our
slip. Did some boat chores, talked with
locals, had Docktails with Follow that Dream and Clearwater then we walked into
town and had dinner at a great place called 'Babes' (thanks Trip Advisor). The bar at the marina was a little wild
because of the holiday weekend and it being the last night they were open for
the season. No problem here; we put on
the AC and didn't hear a thing.
