Tim,


Here is the Army Corps of Engineers site for navigation maps of the
Upper Mississippi (from the Ohio River).

I'll try to find the link for the maps of the Ohio to the Cumberland
River when I can squeeze in the time.

This is wonderful, J. I'll investigate them when I get home and am not
on dial-up like I am here at the shop.
This is something I've wished to do for a while and all this is most
helpful in planning and should make for a great river cruise.


If you decide to navigate to KY Lake, Tim, I think you'll enjoy that
trip (though it's all up river from the Wabash). *The lock at the lake
is impressively large, and the lake is, too. *I should be making a
trip myself to the marina at Johnathon Creek in the next couple of
weeks to de-winterize the boat. *(And to do some fishing and mushroom
hunting. *Priorities, you know.)- Hide quoted text -

Yes, we must have priorities. I dont' do mushroom hunting. I do poison
ivy finding. so I stay out of there...

But they do make for some fine eating. I'm going to be planting some
pumpkins this year. I 'm not a pumpkin fan, but the fried blossoms are
about as good as a Morel IMO.
