Bound and down...it proved to be a very delightful day...a little breeze to keep us from melting, one of us could always find a bit of shade...and then ..."what is that ahead???" Well, it was one very big river boat...the SOUTHERN BELL heading back to her dock in Chattanooga. Floyd talked to the Captain on the radio.  We thought it was most interesting that she was not around for that Riverbend Festival craziness either. She sure was a pretty sight on a very calm Sunday on the river. (notice the weed growth just off channel).

6/18...3:30 addition....as I was cleaning up my stack of papers,  I discovered an old Ditto Landing newsletter...guess where the SOUTHERN BELLE has been??? That's right, Ditto Landing. Seems the Rotary Club had some sort of fund raiser...tickets at $95 per person for Friday...salsa night or Saturday..Hawaiian night...is that not a hoot????
