Let the Parade begin!
Nice wheels
The Port of Grafton Light
Grafton Marina we spent a week here. partly because of a special they were running as well as the 175 th birthday celebrations happening all weekend.
As well as the land parade they had a boat parade and the laying of the wreath for those lost in the last year. This girl had lost her husband suddenly last November.
This is the breakwater for the marina, it is an old floating dock, the pilings are that tall because the river will swell up and the docks will slide up the pilings. They have gone to the top in the past.
The Mississippi River is less than a mile away, and St Louis is about 50 miles away.
5 o'clock Sunday night NautiNell has FINALLY arrived, we will travel with Mike and Twyla once again, down the Mississippi and onto the Ohio River. We will be leaving here Tuesday morning for Hoppies more about that on the next post.
