On the Mississippi

Over the weekend, the motor vessel Mississippi docked in a town just south of us, on (duh!) the Mississippi River.


It's the largest diesel towboat operating on the Mississippi River and for the first time in anyone's recollection, was open to the public for free tours.

Coop man really loves boats and all things water, so we had to take him out for the day. I'm going to let the photos speak for themselves, but he really, really loved it.

We got to walk around the boat and get information about it, the rooms, the kitchen (with a chef!) and more!

He really loved looking down into the water, and at the engines and other neat things!

He even got to "drive" the boat and play with the controls a bit.

Of course, I just enjoyed a family day, especially since life has been so hectic lately! I love these boys and making memories with them <3
