Day 2

Left Red Wing at 10 am. Beautiful day. We didn’t get much sleep because the boat was tied up on the side we slept on and the bumpers for the boat squeaked against the boat all night. Tabbie was sick so she decided to take a nap on a perfectly nice day. All the way through Lake Pepin. We stopped for lunch at Slipperys. A bar that claims to be the bar in Grumpy Old Men. Grant bought a visor at the store.
We decided to stay the night at a beach at Mile Marker 744. Near Buffalo City on the MN side. Grant came in a little hot and took out a beached log. No damage done, the log was rotten. Lucky again! We made a campfire, watched what was left of the sunset and then retired for the evening. Calm waters, great sleep.
