They anchor a barge in the middle of the river with all the fireworks. They had an awesome fireworks show Saturday night. Best I've ever seen.

Killer pics Doc. That had to have been a blast. Did you get to tour any of the older boats and see the inner workings?

A few years ago I got a close up look at one of the smaller sternwheelers. I would like to get a chance to see in the others, but there is no organized tour or anything like that. I did get a tour and dinner on the Mississippi Queen when it was docked in Marietta a few years back. Luxury all the way. It was extra nice.
We were able to dock just below all the sternwheelers. I have a few more pics that I'll try to post tomorrow ....work got in the way today darnit. :D

Yep, right on the Ohio. It's at the point of where the Muskingum River and the Ohio River meet. A beautiful part of the river. I still have some more pics to post, but I don't have them with me now. I'll post them sometime soon.
