You see some interesting things go by on the river from time to time. One time there was a group of 15 or 20 RV-ers who were loaded up on special barges and cruising down the river powered by a tug boat. They’d stop at various places along the river and tour the town, then get back on their barge and their own big comfy motor homes and cruise on to the next town. It looked like a really interesting thing to be doing. I’ve often thought that taking a riverboat cruise down the Mississippi would be a neat thing to do on vacation. Maybe fly up and get on in someplace like Minnesota, cruise all the way to Natchez Mississippi, then fly back home. One of these days maybe.

You should come to Cincinnati and come to the Tall Stacks Festival when about twenty-five paddleboats are all docked at the riverfront. You can tour them, or take a supper cruise. It is a huge gala that happens in the fall.
