Sterling and Judy with a Touque and Ear Muffs On. I Have Invited Them to Thunder Bay in January to Experience Cold
Our Stowaway Wes Helping at the Lock
Barges Working on the River
Ottawa Illinois, not our Capital
Joliet Illinois to Ottawa Illinois Mileage 239.9 - It was cold in the morning but when the sun came out it was a beautiful day. Left the town dock early only to wait 2 hours at the lock. We had a stowaway on our boat Wes off of the Tommy B, when the bridge opened his father left him because he was meeting his marine buddy. He rode with us to Seneca where we dropped him off at the dock. We stayed at the town dock in Ottawa with Jejuda and Tommy B.
