17 March 2013


We had some St. Patrick's Day excitement in the canal behind the house.




We woke up to find that the Barge working on the dock across the canal had sunk during the night and was sitting on the bottom.


                           

The canal was quite busy.  We had Coast Guard and Texas Land Management checking out the site.  They did a good job of re-floating the barge. Here you can see that the Port side is still under water

  


It took all day and well into the evening but they finally got her afloat.  The next morning there she was and a lot cleaner too!!!

  1. Thank you so much for your sweet comment on our blog, regarding our Loop completion! I remember we'll who you are, and follow your RV blog until you stopped writing in the Fall. I didn't realize you we're so close to re-starting your Loop. How exciting, and congratulations on getting back to it! I will look forward to following your blog this year, and watching your progress. Who knows: maybe I'll even meet your son in Seattle sometime! Yikes, what a story about that barge sinking! That must have been quite something to watch. Glad they were able to re-float it. Cathryn and Bob on M/V Next To Me
