Trip on M/V Benyaurd

On April 11, 2007 I took a boat ride on the M/V Benyaurd. It was a trip planned for the Vicksburg Senior Center, Warren County Chamber of Commerce and the Vicksburg Retirement Development Program. It was hosted by Col. Vesay, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Vicksburg District. Approximately ninety people took the excursion and was fed a delicious lunch. I won the first door prize - a lounge chair with a cup holder. Here are some pictures I took along the way.



Col. Anthony Vesay took a picture of Sherill and I. I reciprocated by taking his picture.
He will end his tenure at the Vicksburg District in three months and will be going to Pennsylvania.

This is Vicksburg from the Yazoo Diversion Canal heading out to the River. You can see the Old Court House Museum in the background, which was standing during the Civil War in the Battle at Vicksburg.
