I’m anchored here in Bayou Sorrel. Last night I stayed just above Baton Rouge, and this morning I exited the Mississippi River through the Port Allen Lock.
I like it in the Bayou. When I came this way five years ago I got off a little farther north and came down the Achafalaya River. This is more canal and less river, but both run largely through uninhabited country.
The big news is the weather, but I’ve been comfortable through it. I don’t think it got above freezing today, and freezing rain last night left a coating of ice on deck that made going forward to retrieve the anchor this morning an adventure.
Next stop Morgan City. I should be there for lunch tomorrow.
Pictures, in order
