Two Hours

This was the view of the Tennessee River from our anchorage last night.
We were also visited by a couple of beaver, but those pictures didn't turn out.

It was an early start to the day when we lifted anchor at 6:45 a.m.  It was clear motoring ahead.  Well, it was for the first hour.  Then we were pretty socked into fog for the next two hours.  Come to find out we weren't the only idiot cruisers though.  We met three other cruising vessels going the opposite direction in the same pea soup.
At 11:30 a.m. we turned onto the Tennessee-Tombigbee waterway.  Finally heading south after traveling west for days.  That also put us into the state of Mississippi, leaving Alabama behind for a while.
Around 2:00 p.m. it started raining.  I think the storm was moving in the same direction at the same speed as we were.  For a long time the skies ahead looked bright and promising.  Then the skies behind looked to be clear.  The dark cloud followed us for two hours.
At 5:30 p.m. we dropped anchor near Cotton Springs after 72 miles of travel in just under 11 hours.  The rain came back to visit us for most of the evening and into the night.

The evening rain clouds that came to visit us.
