Baby it's Cold Outside!



Tuesday 1/5/10     We're back at the boat in Columbus, Ms.  As I write this it is 18 degrees outside. Sounds cold but in fact it is 27 degrees warmer than when we left home on Sunday. Time to break out the shorts and flip flops! Wait!! Pam thinks I might be rushing the wardrobe change thing by a few days. Seems she looked at the forecast for the upcoming week and it is showing night time temps between 10 and 15 degrees as far south as Mobile. Patience Rick, patience!
Looks like we may be one of the last boats to head south from Columbus. There are several empty slips at the marina and not much activity. Quite a change from when we left the boat in November. We have a few minor projects to take care of on Tourist and then we'll point the bow south in search of warmer weather.

  2. It's in the 40s in Denver which only once again shows who the smart one in the family is! That is, until later this week when it's single digits again.....

  3. Hey we just left Columbus on Jan. 2nd - we just went thru Coffeeville Lock - 17 degrees this morning at our anchorage. Should be in Mobile Wednesday and plan to keep heading south - you guys will probably catch up with us. Rick, Deb & Izzy
