River, Rails and Riverboats

The Grand American Queen was moored all day Saturday in the Yazoo Diversion Canal behind the Old Depot Museum for her passengers to tour our historic civil war town of Vicksburg, Mississippi.

When I arrived workers were busy laying down new railroad ties.

At one point the passengers had to wait for the workers to finish... 

... so they could get on/off the ship

Working on the railroad while flooding has stopped...

...the north and southbound rail traffic.

Riverboats America arrived this past Thursday, American Duchess on Friday...  

...with the American Queen on Saturday for a full day of passengers touring our city.  Three riverboats staying three full days are great tourism for our hometown.   Vicksburg:  The Key To The South!

    Heya! I understand this is somewhat off-topic however I needed to ask.
    Does building a well-established website such as yours take a massive amount work?
    I am brand new to blogging however I do write in my diary everyday.
    I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share
    my experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have
    any kind of suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
    Appreciate it!
