NOT NOW, RAIN.

Today's agenda: 76 Falls!

good morning, cumberland! 

We all awoke to Tawny and Ryan on board; the post midnight journey back across unfamiliar waters went off without a hitch, thanks to GPS! We woke up today to a sky threatening rain, but decided to spend it outside regardless of the weather.

good morning, beautiful cumberland :) 

We started out with a little early morning fishing. Well, Rob did. I was mid-page reading through Phenomenal when my Paul and Elisa called, while simultaneously Rob managed to catch a fish with another fish. It was a really strange short series of events.

morning fishing... with fish! crazyyy... haha

By mid morning, we were on the boats and cruising towards 76 Falls. We made a stop off at the marina to fuel up and grab a few essentials, before continuing on to the Falls.

We finally arrived at the opening of the falls, and carefully navigated our way through strings of other boats already anchored down for the morning. It wasn't a huge cove, but it sure was beautiful!

76 falls! 

We anchored down and spent the early afternoon doing what we came here to do - kick back and relax!

The skies started to cloud over, so we loaded back up and started heading back to the houseboat. We thought we were on the right track, until we realized that Kenny had peeled off and we found ourselves soaring through the lake in the wrong direction, while the sky opened up and rained on us as though it'd never rained ever. Haha. 

We were a little miserable, but once it ended and we were back at the houseboat - and dry, it was nothing but a laugh. We spent the evening grilling out and admiring the local visitors; they came in droves and it made me wonder how Ali would be handling this situation.. haha. :) Turtles everywhere! 

We opted to wait and relocate the houseboat tomorrow morning, once we have some light to navigate our way to a new spot closer to the Falls.

see ya there, rob! :) 

For now, we're wrapping up the day here, listening to the fish flop around out there and hoping it stays dry tomorrow. The radar keeps telling us it's going to be raining all day, but we're hoping for the best and relaxing for now.

Crossing fingers! Goodnight for now, Cumberland!
