Oct 2 Location: Decatur, AL

Following our anchorage at Second Creek, we docked at Riverwalk Marina in Decatur, AL. While there, we took the afternoon to tour Decatur’s historic district, consisting of Alabama’s largest collection of Victorian homes, and included the Old State Bank which opened in 1833. It is located near the Tennessee River and was scarred by muskets and mini-balls during the Civil War. During the war, it served as a hospital. It was only one of four buildings left standing after the war and has been carefully restored.
