Day 42: 10/17/06

Bill and Sue from Lake City, MN caught up with us while we were held up at Lock and Dam #17, where we were held up by a coal-bearing tow. They invited us on board "Sweet Caroline" and provided us with hot oatmeal (complete w/blueberries) and coffee. They were on their way to Florida via the Mississippi and “Ten-Tomm” Waterways. Odds are they’ll beat us to the warm weather. Thanks for your company and kindness!



Ben and Joe display their own techniques of tent-drying after a rainy night in Illinois. Ben’s worked better, but Joe gets style points.

Joe and Ben,
How exciting to read of your River adventures. We really enjoy the pictures and the stories. It has been fun for our family; Marcus 12, Christopher 9 Ray and I. Grandma Mary and Grandpa Harlan would be proud of you too!! Grandma Mary would really be praying for you both! Perhaps they are a part of your guardian angel team. Hello from all the Kronebusch's too. God's Speed to you!
Kay Kronebusch Frick and family
