Sunday, August 27th, they entered the Mississippi River. Sunday night, they stayed at Alton Marina in Alton, Illinois.
Monday, August 28, they went through St. Louis.
Entering the Mississippi |
You must go where the sign directs you around the Chain Of Rocks, otherwise you go over a waterfall. They lose a boat a year this way. |
Entering St. Louis |
Leaving St. Louis |
Kansas City got 3 inches of rain on Sunday, which is why there is so much debris in the river. |
There are some beautiful big homes along the river. |
This is where they are staying tonight, at Hoppie's Marina in Kimmswick, Missouri Monday, August 28th |
Hoppie's, the last place to get diesel for the next 230 miles. |
Too tired to smile, this part of the trip has been tough. |
