Southern Hospitality

After a record 70 mile paddle, we ended up in Memphis. Our contact, Kathy, welcomed us at the Mud Island boat ramp with some cold beers.

We enjoyed the comforts of home; but our time in Memphis was one of the best stops we had.

Kathy showed us around town, fed us some of the best local BBQ in Memphis, and restocked our rations. Our boat is the heaviest it's been all trip, but she'll lighten over the next 11 days.

We are on track to finish by the 28th, possibly sooner as we are currently 10 miles ahead of schedule.

A great rest, but the team is excited to see the end in sight.
