Sunday @ Sandbar

Three young adults enjoying a beautiful day on the sandbar on the Louisiana side.  They look like little ants walking around.  

Getting ready to leave and they see two towboats coming around the bend.

Waiting for them to pass.  I would imagine the waves from the towboats will be a problem in their small boat.

A small towboat pushing three empty barge containers dowstream.


You can barely see them waiting in their small boat for the Maritime to pass by.  These two towboats were pushing only three containers each and have seen up to 25 or more at a time being pushed by towboats.  Containers being empty and heading downstream makes a trip for the riverboat pilots easier to maneuver.
