Day 39 Lost in the Dismal Swamp

Well, we're not really lost, we just haven't left yet. Spent an amazing, cool, crisp morning drinking in the subtle wonders of the swamp. I took some Dali- esque pictures of reflections in the water. I think I caught the image of the Swamp Witch. We were totally alone because of the lock system - symphony of birds in the background. So relaxing before heading to the hustle and bustle of Norfolk. Then we got to the exit lock and John spied an Advanced Auto Parts store and decided this was the place to change the oil. Since they have to order the filters and they will not get here until tomorrow morning, we are spending another night in the swamp. This afternoon, it got much hotter than the last few days. We picked up some supplies at the local Food Lion, John worked in the engine room, then we are heading out to do some exploring...and maybe get a pizza. 

Will send more pictures of the swamp after the hotspot charges.
