"Kayaker" Josh who is kayaking his way around the Great American Loop.
For the rest of his story...
"Doc" went along with us to Bay Springs. We started out at 7:30 & arrived at our anchorage about 3:30.
Grand Harbor Marina is at mile marker 449.7 and we anchored about marker #414.5. No Locks today.
This is Brad's boat. It is an Albin 27. He cooked pork chops on his grill while Bob & I cooked new potatoes and carrots on our grill.
We then took our veggies to his boat & we had great conversation and a delicious supper.
Bob & I said goodbye to Brad at 8:30 Sat. morning & headed for Bay Springs Lock & Dam about 2 miles downstream. We had a 2 1/2 hour wait at that lock. When we got permission to lock thru, we were joined in the lock with a tow boat and 2 yachts. We dropped 84' to the next pool.
We had been at Grand Harbor about 5 weeks and at least 3 times a day had walked Wicket down the dock, turned the corner and walked down the main dock and up to the Pet Potty area. I guess she got impatient & decided to go on her own.

Here's what happened... I was catching bluegills off the dock right by our boat. Bob was watching & enjoying the sunset. When I catch fish, Wicket goes nuts. She tries biting the fish and when I'm waiting for one to bite, she jumps up at me & barks impatiently. So Bob & I kept telling her to "go lie down" because we thought she was being impatient about fishing. Well, I guess she was trying to tell us that she needed to go potty. She got tired of waiting for us to figure it out, so she took off for the potty all by herself.
