Calm After the Storm

The temperature dropped a bit following the storm but was still pleasant at 68-70 degrees during the day. Below you can see Evansville which we passed shortly after starting (at the usual crack of dawn).

Below you can see construction underway on the riverfront project in Owensboro, KY.

We made it through two locks (Edinburgh and Cannelton) with ease. We have now gone through 15 locks and have only two more to go. Our friends, Ed and Kyle, provided us with a detailed overview of the Ohio River and we agree that the Cannelton pool is the prettiest.

The storm the night before blew in a ton of rain onto the bridge and aft deck carpets so I spent the day cleaning them. Thank goodness we brought the rug shampooer with us.

We anchored on the KY side at mile marker 690 and saw another beautiful sunset.

And had another full moon.

We plan to stay in Louisville Friday night. On Saturday we hope to get above Markland Dam but have heard that one of the locks is under repair and the waits can be extensive. With any luck, we will get through it on Saturday. If so, we plan to stay above the dam Saturday night and then arrive at Lighthouse Point sometime on Sunday.
