Godspeed, American Queen

 The American Queen left Vicksburg last night at 7 p.m. Her stacks are down so she can fit under the bridges.

 Wow.

 The Queen raising her smokestacks back up.

 After the Queen passed by, I went back to the Overlook to watch the sun set. I was not disappointed.

The American Queen is back

 The American Queen docked at City Front in Vicksburg this morning. Never thought I would see her here again. She was supposed to arrive at 8:30, but as usual, was here early this morning. I love this boat. She is leaving at 4, if anyone wants to go see her under steam power. Oh yeah, she also brought a bus. I spotted it riding around downtown this morning when I was leaving.
