More Tenn-Tom and Mobile Harbor pictures
The last three nights on the Tenn-Tom were spent at beautiful anchorages.We'd pull off the main river onto a small creek and ease back in until the creek opened into a big lake.The stillness was amazing...there were no houses or no sign of people except "Cloud Nine" and our friends Mike and Cindi on "Double Adventure"This is the most remote part of the trip so far..no marinas, cell phones or inter net access on this part of the river.My overall impression of the waterway is one of rural beauty and I have an appreciation for what went in to creating this wonder...more dirt was moved to create the Tenn-Tom than was moved to create the Panama canal.When coming in to Mobile the scenery quickly changed and flatened out as we are at sea level.Mobile is the 12th busiest port in the country.I loved all the different types of commercial boats we saw, including the proud looking shrimp boats.Speaking of that, I'm waiting for a shrimper to pull in at the dock..he sells huge shrimp right off the boat for $4.00 a lbs.
