Thursday, May 9, 2019 - Florence Harbor Marina to Riverwalk Marina, Decatur, AL, mm 305

We were out and going up in the Wilson Lock by 7:30 AM!  Lucky us, the lock master had a tow waiting to go up, too, but put us in there first.  We've had the best experience ever on this trip getting through Wilson Lock.  Something to smile about! ;-)

As we entered Wheeler Lock a while later we had light rain greet us.  That was just the beginning of a deluge of water and at times lightning and thunder.  We ended up pulling over in a cove to anchor during the rough part of the storm.  We went through rain for much of the trip to Riverwalk Marina at Decatur, AL. Looks like more rain to come tonight...tomorrow...and maybe the next day.  We'll try to make 40-50 miles daily as we get closer to home.

What a lovely lock wall in the Wheeler Lock!
