This marina sits close to the Clark Bridge. This unique “cablestay” structure is a 4,620-foot gateway between Illinois and Missouri. It is beautifully lit in the evening. There are two pyramids of cables towering above the bridge. Shortly before docking our son, William, called and said he had car trouble and had to pull off the highway. His wife, Lynn, who was driving a different car, was unaware he had car trouble and was still on her way to meet us at the marina. Will had called AAA and would get a ride home with the tow truck. Lynn arrived shortly after we did and I gave her the bad news. She stayed and visited with us – we enjoyed our time together with her. Al is running on 3 hours of sleep from the night before so he turned in by 9:45. Looking forward to tomorrow, changing fuel filters, washing down the boat and sewing more curtains. Maybe tomorrow I can find time to lie out on the swim deck and read one of those books Cairn and Carl gave me. Good night.
