Hennepin to Peoria

Tugs Along the River

The last couple of days we have traveled on down the Illinois River with Time and Tide and the gentleman in Sixteen Tons who is from Finland.  I guess those locks did not scare him from traveling with us.  We tied up on and old barge at Hennepin and walked up the hill to have a chicken dinner with our traveling friends who had been this way before. Traveling with a gold looper does have its advantages. We are at a dock in Peoria tonight overlooking the city.
