The Tugs All Dressed Up
Our Villa On Parade
Al Peterson, The Leader of the Pack
Al and Rie Peterson joined us aboard Nellie for today's parade of tugs. They're an inspiring couple: they bought their tug, Kedge, new, some 30 years ago; they've done the Mississippi seven times; Al's 90 and they're still on the river.
Presented at tonight's dinner, It's Official--We're River Rats!
Hudson to Stillwater--Navigable Terminus of the St. Croix River--and Back
We had a slow paced, relaxing, 15 mile, out and back cruise today. Since there's virtually no current on the St. Croix River, 1000 rpm yielded the same speed as 2000 rpm on the Mississippi. The trip's total is now 4,230 miles. DBH
