Cruising the Tennessee RiverOn April 3rd, we left Tampa in shorts and T-shirts, with a stopover in Atlanta to visit Sophal's buddy Marwan. Next day, we were back to our winter clothing. Good thing we packed some with us. Back at Midway Marina a couple of days later, the temperature dropped to the 30s, and remained there for several more days. Had we known that winter doesn't thaw out until mid April, we would not have returned so early. Anyhow, we found Mai Thai to be surprisingly clean; we had expected spiders and wasps to seek refuge there. Guess it must have been too cold. We spent the rest of the month getting reacquainting with her and the marina folks, and prepping for our cruise to Tennessee. Taking advantage of the nice weather, we cast off on Sun Apr 29th. Normally, we take our time to cruise somewhere. This time was different. We had a schedule. We had an appointment to get Mai Thai surveyed with a SAMS surveyor for our insurance company. So, four days and seven locks later, we arrived at Hales Bar Marina, our destination for the summer.
