First night aboard pathfinder


We have completed the food and miscellaneous purchases at Walmart and Wynn Dixie here in Orange Beach and now have it all aboard.  Every corner of the boat is stuffed. 
Because the air conditioning for the section of the house we sleep in has suffered a casualty, and because it will aid us in getting underway early for a relatively long day, we will sleep aboard the boat tonight.  We have to stop for fuel ten miles down the track from here and then get across shallow Mobile Bay before some predicted afternoon storms.  If it does not look like we can beat the storms based on weather radar, we will hang back at the end of the cut into the bay and let the storms clear before proceeding tour anchorage at mile 12 of the Tombigbee Waterway north of Mobile.
