Guntersville

We had to wait at Goose Pond until about 11:00 am for the fog to lift.  We had a short day planned anyway, so we were still able to reach our planned destination for the day.  Guntersville, Alabama.
They have a free dock.


We walked over to the city's welcome center, and unfortunately Pam found that they have a hysterical museum in town.  The fact that it is several miles from the dock and uphill in both directions didn't deter her.  Off we went.  The museum was mostly about Wernher von Braun and rockets.  (Huntsville is not far away.)  The museum also had a mineral collection.  "Minerals--NOT Rocks."

The city of Guntersville is about 10 miles above the dam, and at this point is more like a lake instead of a river.  There are more bass boats on this lake than anywhere we've been.
