Wednesday October 29th

Here is a couple of pics of the 'Grand Canyon' that we went thru--bit of a misnomer--but fun to see anyway.

We left Panama City Tuesday morning--heading across East Lake--into Wetappo Creek, stopping at White City overnite at a free dock at their park.  Not much of a 'City'--one little 'redneck' general store that sold everything from t shirts to chicken feed, but great people.  On from there into Searcy Creek--into Lake Wimico, both of these fresh water--but not so pretty --brown as tea!  Next into Apalachicola River and finally arrived at Apalachicola on the Gulf--back into salt water, alligators and lots of dolphins.  Apalachicola is a really neat fishing town--big oyster festival to be held here this weekend.  Watched the shrimp boats heading out this afternoon--already had one good feed of fresh shrimp.  Went uptown for dinner this evening--Neil was up for a snack of oysters.  These last 2 pictures are about the only really interesting thing we saw on the 'creeks'.  Didnt even see other boats--just some fishermen.  Weather is still staying great although we had a shower this afternoon--the first rain we have had in over 2 weeks--and the next few days are to be good again. Blessings!!!

We crossed back into Eastern Time again, but no sence in changing our clocks, as we 'fall back' an hour in the next couple of days!!  Still heading east--next stop Carrabelle .   the loopy loopers
