Riverboat America, Towboat, Etc.

I was pleasantly surprised to see a riverboat moored in my hometown yesterday because "America" was not on my schedule to be here until Saturday.  I found out "America" was moored by an app FINDSHIP on my phone.  After my doctor's appointment, I decided to run down to the riverfront to see the boat.  Here are some pictures I took on my way through town.

A picture of a new restaurant that opened last Saturday called The Mississippi Barbecue Company. I'm looking forward to eating there and I know it will be a BIG hit downtown for sure!

Took this picture from my truck of the same Maritime towboat in the Yazoo Diversion Canal heading to the Mississippi River.

Riverboat "America" moored yesterday at the waterfront while workers were loading fresh produce onto the boat.

Today the Grand "American Queen" is at our waterfront for a full day for her passengers to tour and enjoy our historic civil war town of Vicksburg, MS.  Friday the "American Duchess" returns.
