Day 33 - October 16, 2012: On to an anchorage at Jones Creek

Today was a travel day on our way back to Wheeler State Park for the AGLCA Rendezvous starting Sunday.

The day was sunny and we got some great views of Lookout Mountain (site of one of the Civil War battles) and Signal Mountain (location the Union used to signal Confederate movements).

On the way we were beginning to see fall colors starting to emerge. We had been told that the hillsides here can be quite stunning during the last two weeks of October and wish we could be around long enough to see them.

Our destination was an anchorage at Jones Creek. It was in a large bay, and you would probably miss it if you weren't careful, as it is almost hidden from the river behind a small island of trees. It had wide open views of the hills and was filled with many varieties of birds. We watched the Presidential Debate, thanks to digital HD TV on an amplified antennae powered by our house battery, and called it a day.
