Beverly/calm and warm
Happy Thanksgiving! Today we left Houma at about 7:30. It was calm with a little mist rising off the water. It was an easy day - 45 miles - with 1 fixed bridge, a pontoon bridge, and a lift bridge. They all went pretty smoothly and we were anchored here by 2:30. Tomorrow we enter New Orleans via the Harvey locks, negotiating several bridge openings, the Mississippi river, and the Industrial lock to arrive at a marina where we plan to spend a couple of days. Should be fun!
