Did you drop your screwdriver?

Another foggy morning:


The first of 3 locks today:


Do you think some bad words may have been said when this screwdriver was dropped as the lock was being built?


We were lucky with our timing.  This Corps of Engineers boat and dive boat were being lowered with us.  This was the last lockdown before maintenance closed the lock for a couple of hours.  As we were entering the lock, we heard Joe (Glory Days) calling the lockmaster to ask him to wait half an hour.  As the workboat was ready to go, Glory Days was out of luck.


Getting into Aberdeen Marina was quite an adventure:

You REALLY want to stay in the channel!  This is Salt 'n Sand skirting logs:


My Way disappears as Salt 'n Sand follows:


Tricky maneuvering:


Really?!


There goes Salt 'n Sand.  Hope we can follow:


Looking back at our path into Aberdeen Marina:


And Benjamin thinks his Dad can't parallel park!
