When I get back to St.Louis we run a boat of my uncle's on the

jack, that's one thing I'd like to do this summer, is go in a river
cruise on the MS. But I dont' know a thing about it, except for what I
see going over the bridge from IL into MO. on I-70.

I would like to plan it out for this summer, though.

You know where I can get info to do such?


Th Illinois river is easy, no problem there, been up and down it many
times from Havana, to Alton and back,


When we are on the river, since it is my Uncles boat he always runs it
so I can't really claim any experiance. When I get a chance I will ask
him for any tips he may have. When we go out it is just for a few hours.
And it had been several years. He will run pretty far with his wife
getting lodging on some points on the river. But honestly I can't recall
where he says he going when they go out for a few days.

I will try to remember to ask him about running the river and where he
goes. Plus any advice he may offer. His boat is a 23 ft Slickcraft I
beleive. He has had it for about 20 years on the river.
