Hit the Mississippi today




We hit the Miss. today. Very rough water. We even shot over a dam today because the water is so high just before getting on the Mississippi. All advice is not to go down because the water keeps rising and we don't know if we can motor back up. But we did go out on the Miss. and went up stream from the White river. Every thing is fine here. Saw a live armadilla tonight in the park, and a live snake on the ledge where we are tied up. Will start back up stream tomorrow, but it will be slow going because of the high water.
