The Mighty Mississippi Tour @ Vicksburg, MS

The Grand American Queen was here as part of a special three-week Mighty Mississippi tour that started in Minneapolis, MN and ends in New Orleans. They will pick up a new group and start back up the MS River. They will be back to my hometown of Vicksburg, MS, for half a day on Friday, September 9, then not back again until November.  Below are some pictures I took today at the waterfront of the Queen!
