Bashi Creek Anchorage
Another early day as we depart Demopolis at 7 AM to cover 71 miles and one lock on our way to a postage stamp of an anchorage called Bashi Creek. Today, Freedom’s Turn, Our Turn, Roy-El and, of course, Kismet negotiated eleven tug boats with barges mostly on the tight twisting turns of the lower Black Warrior River. We gained another boat in our caravan today, Our Turn shared this anchorage with us tonight and will probably join us the rest of the way to Mobile Bay. The reward tonight was a quiet, calm anchorage with a dark, night sky littered with a ca-zillion bright stars.
