Peoria City Dock

Sept. 7, 2012.  We experienced rainy weather this evening and early morning.  We fueled at Hamm's to be notified payment needed to be by cash or check.  Since the fuel bill was well over $500 we probably didn't have that much cash between us so I dug out a check I told Sally "I might need".

We proceeded the 15-20 miles through the Peoria pool, a huge, generally shallow lake to downtown Peoria arriving around mid-day.  We moored at the "City Dock" in downtown Peoria where s number of loopers we had traveled with the previous day were docked.  The Peoria city docks were meant for boats 30' and less but we were able to find one more "big" spot to dock.  We were able to get 50 amp power by connecting our "Smart Reverse Y adapter" to two 30 amp/125v outlets so we had 50amp/220v power. 

The skies were threatening most of the day but Ty ventured out for some bread and a few other supplies.  We had a very nice meal at Joe's Crab Shack at the Peoria waterfront.
