Day 54: M 11/5- Tower Rock

The day was rainy, but the wind wasn't bad and it was warm enough. We paddled through it uneventfully.
We slowed down to admire a tall, rock island as we came to the city of Grand Tower. I assume the town was named after the island we saw, Tower Rock from the Louis and Clark exploration.
We stopped at an RV park and got water. We stopped in town too, looking for power. A little town with out power at their ramp, but we did find out that their was a little party store less than a half mile away. We decided to see if they had anything we could use. They didn't have much; but in order to not leave empty handed, I bought some chess puffs.
We left town and went a half miles to the other side of the river and stopped for the day. We had already made 26 miles and it had started raining again. We sat in the rain on the beach and ate cheese puffs for the afternoon. It was quite pleasant. When the rain broke a little before dark we set up camp.
