Shawnee State Park

At least it wasn't raining this morning.  Well, I don't think it was--we couldn't see 10' in the thick fog.  We wanted to leave no later than 9 AM, but the fog was too thick.  We could hear barges going by, but couldn't see them. We waited until 9:45, and thought it was clearing.  And it was clearing where we were--but not everywhere.  This is a photo of the clear spot.

The fog finally burned off, and indeed, we had a day with no rain.  Got to see the river without looking through the small area that our windshield wipers clear.

Went under a bridge that reminds me of the one over the Mississippi at Alton, Illinois.



Found the remains of the last folks who tried to make this trip we're on.


Pam spotted some wildlife along the shore.

We're staying the night in Shawnee State Park Marina.  It's near Portsmouth, OH.  Not much around here, but beautiful countryside.
