River Homes

Cruising up and down the river, we saw quite a variety of homes.  As with most waterfront areas there's the really nice homes






And the not so luxurious cabins








In every case, big or small, if you love the river, you'd better love the railroad.  The track is between the river and the first two houses.  And it's just out the back door of the last ones.



Here's a guy who is really concerned about high water.  He built his house on a barge, and then raised it up on stilts.





My grandfather always wanted to build a house on a bluff overlooking the river.  The location of this one would have been good, but I think he would have found it a little too ornate.




However,  the best homes overlooking the river just might not be occupied by humans.
