Thanx; and we got back early..I ran most of the night with a full moon,
( I normally stop at night ) there was a lot of Tug traffic , I got in
a good moving line..( lucky timing ) and decided to keep the
peddle to the metal rather than chance losing my place,
then later likely getting behind some slow tows.
I had a dredge on the hip, with a barge behind and overtaking
anybody was out of the question, also my boss offered me
1.5 times my normal rate if I came on in so he could
get home. ( My boss worked as my deck hand this trip ;-) )
Nice trip but I sure pushed my limits..however after a few hours
of rest I feel better than I thought I would.
I should be off until Tuesday.
