National River Museum Dubuque, IA

This is the Mississippi.



She's a beaut.


A barge, just past lock & damn #11. This is how they move grain down to the gulf.


Here I am outside the National River Museum in Dubuque, IA


It's got a fun new kids section.



See the kids


Informative exhibits


Like this one on Native American trade


And this



Showing the effects of the recent BP oil spill/disaster in the gulf. They took the fish out. I missed the fish.


Luckily they still had some in the river section. Big, ugly, fish.



Big, scary, alligator


What? You see what behind me?


Just kidd'n. See, I survived and here I am with a paddle wheel boat.
