Ashland City was...now we are in Clarksville, Tennessee. Floyd and I rode our bicycles into Ashland's grocery store this morning. Reminded me of Fredonia...small town. Something exciting was getting ready to happen...we noticed soccer teams, band and police escort. We left anyway. No problems getting through Cheatum Lock and Dam ( unlike the two hour delay going up ...tweedle dee and tweedle dum were cleaning some gauges). Today a barge came out, we went in, poof, we were 26 feet lower. Lots and lots of boat traffic on the river today. We saw it all. Arrived in Clarksville around 5. The excitement here is the impending arrival of the Delta Queen steamboat. She was due tomorrow but sources seem to think that has all been delayed until Monday. She is headed back toward Paducah so we might stay around and follow her for a while. The real excitement ,however, is Kelli's birthday present from Lance. Yes, it is official. They are engaged. Ring watch 2008 is quickly becoming wedding planner 2009. We are pumped!!!
