Day 58
Miles Traveled: 26
Total Miles Traveled: 1475




  We docked overnight at the Guntersville City Docks which were free and very nice.  No electric or water, but great docks with good cleats and well protected from any wakes from the lake.  We awoke to yet another beautiful sunrise over the mountains.

  The morning was a little foggy, but cleared off just in time for passing by Painted Bluff.  By then, we had smooth water and blue skies which made for a great picture.

  We had another short cruising day, so, we were not so tired when arriving at Ditto Landing Marina near Huntsville, AL.  This marina is operated by the city and the county and is very nice.  The area, Ditto Landing, was named after James Ditto, a pioneer who began operating a ferry here in 1807. Later, the area became a very busy inland port.
