Here are some other photos of boats and barges taken from the old Mississippi River bridge during the Over the River Run Saturday. The top photo is one that most people didn't see, the Sheriff's Department boat patrolling underneath the bridge before and during the race. I appreciate Sheriff Martin Pace and his staff for that.
This was an unusual thing to see — three tows pushing barges and even the supply boat hooked up alongside. I have never seen a configuration like this on the river. And to think it passed by me on the one day I was on the bridge!

This is the view that greeted us in the first few moments when we stepped on the bridge that morning.
I love to watch the wheelwash. Talk about power!
