Day 117 on the Mississippi River

Updated: Oct 8, 2022

Day 117


October 4, 2022

Tuesday


LRM 127

2168 miles completed


11 miles today.


I saw my first alligator today. He was right there in the river at the point. The river made a left bend. There was a sandy beach. He was about 30 feet off the East bank.



I did a short paddle around the right bend and the left bend in the river and then got out for a days rest. I stopped at the boat ramp at mile 127.3. I unloaded all my gear and carried it up to the top of the ramp then I carried my boat up. My ride arrived shortly there after.


I went to my granddaughters house for a day of rest on Wednesday. I will resume on Thursday morning.

The pics of you and Henry are just cute as can be. I have only one that I know of of me sitting on my granddad’s lap. A keeper.
