Tennessee Tombigbee Waterway – Aberdeen, MS, to Columbus, MS
October 29, 2006: After one more delicious cholesterol-laden breakfast at the marina, we said good-by to the good folks on Rangatira, then four boats headed out for Columbus. It was an easy trip, and we made it to the Columbus Marina at Mile 335 early in the afternoon. Buddy-boating with the Cowhigs has been great.
The marina was chock-to-block crowded. Boats are rafted up just to get everybody in. Bob has been troubleshooting the electronics problem, but no joy yet. We’ve heard that boats are backed up from here to the Gulf, as everyone is waiting for the November 1 insurance deadline before they reach the coast. We are still in the company of various Looper boats and friends, which adds a lot to the trip!
