Monday, 11/14, saw the Lucky Lady off to an early start as she left her quiet mooring in West Bay. It was another beautiful day and the water was as calm as we've seen since leaving Louisville. From West Bay we entered St. Andrew Bay and then into East Bay. Back into a narrow canal for a while and then across Lake Wimico . . . a very shallow Lake Wimico with mullet jumping everywhere. The wide open water narrowed again and we were on the Jackson River and then the Appalachicola River. Back in the Eastern time zone.

We passed a swing bridge. Until then I didn't know that such a bridge existed. Soon we'd reach another bridge, Hwy. 98 as it crosses the river and into (or out of) Appalachicola - - - the oyster capital of the world.

This was the first swing bridge we had ever seen. The disconnected section swings into place when needed.
