Mile 54

I’m back on somewhat familiar waters. I came south through here on Mazurka a few years ago. The Mighty Mississippi. It still impresses.

I anchored here at dusk. Was underway for about 11 hours – 18 miles down the Ohio and 54 miles up the Mississippi. Heavily overcast and grey, with gusty SW winds. This isn’t very sheltered, but is well outside the channel.

The pics show my interests. Lots to see today – tows, wing dams, industry and a massive ongoing effort to keep the river under control.
