Picture of the Day  

 

 

Our River Pictures and e-mail of the Day.........  are from Gary and Judy Meinershagen when they were in Key West last week.

 

River Bill,

  Hello again from Key West. When we were out deep sea fishing the other day, we found the "Barbara Ann" in the Harbor. Barbara Ann was the former boat of Danny and Barbara Wagner from St. Charles, Missouri. It still has "Port of St. Louis" on the back. What a thrill to see it down here in Key West. We went back to the harbor today and met Captain Wally, the present owner, and got aboard for a tour. 

Attached are the pics we took.

Judy & Gary Meinershagen

The River Pictures on this Day In 2005 ----Friday----  were sent by two different boaters  just a few days apart from each other.   Harry Ragland, who had Monday's pic of the day, sent me the top picture and Robert "Slow Ride" Cope sent in the bottom picture. 

    I think that the two pictures really compliment each other because Harry's is a great shot of a large area the river, the fall colors and the bluffs with Principia College on top.......And.......Robert's picture is of the same area, only  a unique close-up shot of one of the rock formations that sort of lines up  with the steeple in the picture.

Winterization........
   
Unfortunately, the boating season is winding down and it is time to start thinking about winterizing. Winterizing your engine is the most important maintenance duty a boater can perform. All winterizations should include antifreeze to protect your engine from corrosion. All winterizations at John’s Boat Harbor include antifreeze, fogging oil and stabilizer. Prices start at $150.00. Call (636) 946-2073 for an appointment. 

    Now is the time to address any mechanical problems that you might suspect. Our labor rate is $65.00/hr. Call the office at (636) 946-2073 for an appointment.

Corps waives day use fees for Vets on Veterans Day

     St. Louis, Mo.The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will waive day use fees for veterans, active, reserve and guard service members and their families at its recreation areas in the St. Louis District and nationwide on Veterans Day, Sunday, November 11.

"Our intent is to honor and support the men and women who have served our nation in the armed services," Major General Don T. Riley, the Corps’ Director of Civil Works, said. "We chose this occasion to encourage our veterans and those on active duty to enjoy our parks and realize the benefits of outdoor recreation activities."

On November 11, day use fees will be waived for veterans, active, reserve and guard service members and their families visiting Corps-managed recreation areas. This waiver includes boat launch ramp and swim beach fees. However, fees for camping and camping related services as well as fees for specialized facilities, such as picnic shelters, will not be waived.

The Corps is one of the largest providers of outdoor recreation, operating 2,625 recreation areas at 423 projects (mostly lakes) and leasing an additional 1,867 sites to state or local park and recreation authorities or private interests.

The Corps hosts about 371
million visits each year at its lakes, beaches and other areas, and estimates that 25 million Americans (one in ten) visit a Corps project at least once a year to recreate. Of those totals, 16 million visits were hosted in the St. Louis District last year alone.

Fall Colors Predictions......Missouri Department of Conservation foresters update "Fall Color" reports weekly from mid-September through early-November.  

 

  According to the Missouri Department of Conservation website this past weekend was the peak of fall colors for the St. Louis area.  Since the area had it's first official freeze and some high winds for several days...... most all of the of the early fall colored leaves are off the trees. 

   However, many species of the oak trees are now turning from green to a variety of red, orange and yellow colors. This show should last for a few weeks unless we get some high winds or hard rains that would knock the leaves off the trees. 

  MDC predicts several weeks of good fall colors for the St. Louis area yet !

Lock and Dam 15 spans the Mississippi River between Davenport, Iowa and Rock Island, Illinois.  It's 1,203 feet long......and the largest roller dam in the world  with eleven roller gates.

   

 Lock and Dam 15 is unusual because it:

  • Is made up of only roller gates

  • It has different sizes and types of roller gates

  • It is not perpendicular to the flow of the river

  • it is one of the few facilities that has a completed auxiliary lock.

4.5 Onan Generator

Average book price on a 1982 Holiday Rambler is about $12,000 with average miles.
I am asking $15,000, and have invoices for everything above. (3 yr. warranty on engine)
We have up graded to a bigger motor home, but did not plan to sell this one.
When our main boat engine exploded, our financial plan changed.
If SERIOUSLY interested, please contact
