Taking A Road Trip

Riverboat "Queen of The Mississippi" In Town!

Riverboat, “Queen of the Mississippi ''moored in the Yazoo Diversion Canal yesterday and today while her passengers tour our historic civil war town. She was southbound at 12:30 today.  You can also see the beautiful Vicksburg Riverfront Murals that capture the City of Vicksburg’s past, present, and future roles in American history, commerce, culture, religion, and technology. The picture was taken looking down at Catfish Row Children's Art Park. Riverboats, "American Jazz" will return on June 17th, and “America'' on June 18th. Vicksburg: The Key To The South! 

Incredible Whitetail Buck Vocalizations - The Management Advantage

I have heard these sounds in the woods while deer hunting years ago on Anderson-Tully land at Brown's Point on Kings Point Island, north of my hometown of Vicksburg, Mississippi.

My Facebook friend, Mike Persichini took this picture today of a doe who is about to give birth to triplets or maybe four, he said. I hope she has them soon.

Queen Of The Mississippi Spending The Night, Etc., Etc.

Sharing some pictures I took of the riverboat Queen of the Mississippi last Sunday at sunset. She was moored overnight. Today the cruise ship American Jazz, and riverboat American Countess will be here, and Friday, America. American Jazz will return on Monday, June 7th. On June 9th, the American Queen (for the first time this year), with the Queen of the Mississippi is scheduled to be here and tour our historic town of Vicksburg, MS. (Update) American Queen will not cruise until August.
