The trees have started changing here; we are looking forward to the Cumberland and Tennessee River. We have seen a few of the flying Carp on the trip, they are known to jump right into your boat. We are sure we have heard some hit the boat. Mel’s was a 10 hour day from Tall Timbers as we had an hour of delays in the locks. Mel has a dock/barge where you can tie-up for the night for $25.00. Bob and Ivey caught our lines. They are loopers from south Florida on “Karma”. We enjoyed dinner with them at Mel’s and hope to see them in Grafton
