October 23, 2014 - Officially in Alabama

We have spent the last few days weaving from Mississippi to Alabama, but officially entered Alabama for the rest of our journey to the Gulf of Mexico today. We ended our day in Demopolis (Alabama)Yacht Basin at Kingfisher Marina. Once again, we traveled all day with some of our Looper friends and connected with many more tonight at "docktails" in the marina. We then went to dinner with 2 other couples (Mark & Vicki - Blue Willow and Paul & Stephanie - Infinite Seas) and came back to the boat just in time for "Looper Midnight" - 9:00 p.m. It is amazing how tired we feel at 9:00 in the evening...thus, appropriately named "Looper Midnight", as it is felt by most Loopers. Interesting phenomenon...

Last night we anchored in Sumpter Recreation Area with Blue Willow (Mark & Vicki Hill) and enjoyed a splendid evening with a picnic and hot dog roast around a campfire in the camping area just along the shore of our anchorage. We took our dinghies to shore and enjoyed the brightly light starry sky on our short trek back to the boat. Beautiful, enjoyable night!!!

Once again we are plagued with limited internet access so are unable to post pictures. Today we encountered the breathtaking White Cliffs at Epes along our journey. Pictures of these cliffs will be included in our posting of photos. It truly was indescribably beautiful!!

Another week has nearly passed us by, and we hope all is well with the friends following us on the blog. We send our love to you all!
