We're at Grand Harbor Marina at the exact corners of Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee.

In fact, the view from our aft deck actually overlooks Pickwick Lake and you can see all three states from our aft deck! Across the water is Tennessee, on the left bank is Mississippi and the right bank is Alabama.

Two nights ago, we were at Clifton, TN Marina.... no cell phone service and no internet. Now at Grand Harbors, there's also no internet and poor cell phone service so my internet cell doesn't work. I posted this from my laptop in the car in a parking lot where there's good cell coverage.

We'll be here 2 days, then on to Florence, AL where we plan to stay for a week.

On the river cruise to Clifton, we passed many barges, including tis one... the largest tow we have ever seen. It's 4 barges wide by six long, so one towboat is pushing 24 barges. I talked to the towboat captain on VHF and he said that each barge has 2 million lbs. of coal, so the whole tow has 48 million lbs of coal in it. Incredible!!

The Tennessee River frequently has limestone cliffs like this along the banks.













Where the banks are sand or riprap, houses are built on high stilts to stay safe from the floods.










There were a number of places where the Fall colors were starting to show nicely.
