Bay Springs has a Park for Shore Dooty

Day 177 … Sat, Oct 14, 2017 … 42.6 miles; 5:15 hours

Dry Creek to Say Springs

No locks today!! it makes for a much easier time to plan departure & arrival when you do not have to wait for locks to take you through.

We had to wait for this tow to get on a straight away so we could pass him

Rip picked this anchorage because it is just 1 cove over from the 1st lock we do tomorrow AND it has a park with boat ramp, dinghy dock and trash can for us to use.

Not particularly scenic, but quiet and easy for shore dooty.

Also, easy to plan when to leave in the  am. We will call the lock and go when they say they are ready for us.
