Day 49 on the Mississippi River

October 9, 2021

Saturday

Tent camping on the river

RM 708

634 miles completed

I paddled 18 miles including locking through dam number 6.

Terry is “all good”. He is about to catch up to me. He locked through dams 5A and 6. He stopped to camp today at RM 712. I passed marker 712.8 at 3:50. I know because I took a picture of it and the picture has a time stamp.

I stopped to camp at 5:00. So I’m about an hour ahead of him.

For dinner I had chicken Alfredo noodle soup.

I slept in my tent.
