Rain and cold set in.  Spent most of day in boat preparing for our departure Wednesday morning to Hoppies Marina in Kimmswick, MO.

Spent the day at Will and Lynn’s.  Used Will’s car to stock up on groceries, etc.  They drove us back to boat early evening with thoughts of them joining us at Kentucky Lakes in a week.  Alton bridge very beautiful lit at night.

Al and the boys did some general maintenance on the generator.  Eric and Kristine came over and we all went downtown Alton antiquing. Had a bite to eat at Fast Eddies, shrimp $.25 each, hamburgers $.99.  They had live music, a huge crowd for a Sunday afternoon.  We went home with Will and will use his car tomorrow to stock up on groceries.  Had dinner at a great restaurant, Sweet Tomatoes, where Paul works.  He looked great in his uniform.  He brought us a plate of cookies he baked.  He was working a double shift.
