Day 311-314 August 21-24 899 mi Marion IL


We are at Winter Harbor Marina getting the Nanseann ready  to spend the winter and loading up the rental car to return to Marion.  Things have been busy around here.
 
 


One of the heated storage buildings
 
 
The other heated storage building
 
 
82 foot Yacht on the end was cruising the Erie Canal after the big summer storm that closed the canal for a month and guess what.....they ran over a submerged car in the canal....major problems
 
 
Shot of the moon during the day
 
 
Marina is full....most waiting for repair work and winter storage
 
 
Bright moon tonight
 
 
Tower Garden put to bed....this was our tomato crop
 
 
Securing doors open so we will not get mold....
 
 
Final Job.....take Saddi's ramp off....one more time....
 
 
Owner's Home....beautiful lawn and flowers
 
 
Beautiful morning
 
 
I'm Ready.....I'm Ready....to GO!!!!!
 
 
We depart Brewerton 8:30AM Friday morning leaving the Nanseann behind with mixed emotions!!!  She will have her engines serviced and then will be lifted out of the water, have her bottom cleaned and will be put to bed for the winter.  Tom has been doing this for over 15 years and came with high recommendations.  The three of us have been on the boat for over 10 months now so we can be sentimental.  Anyway the rental car is loaded......I'm sure the Captain could not have put another item aboard.
 
 
I have my own space
 
 
West side of Indianapolis....I have never stayed in a motel
 
 
Well I know this place....the Coach House with ALL our Stuff
 
 
Rental Car unloaded
 
 
Our home for the winter but remember it is For Sale.....Last fall we took everything out of the coach in order to sell it.....well we didn't.....now we are moving back into the coach for the winter.  We will return to the boat in May and the blog will continue.....We plan on being in Canada for 4 months and in Chicago by Labor Day weekend.  After that we will travel the Illinois, Mississippi, Ohio and Cumberland Rivers back to Green Turtle Bay Marina where it all started.
We have had a wonderful trip.....seeing the USA via water is really an experience.
Thanks for watching my blog.....I have had a great time working on it.
