Or other large rivers?

I just saw a tug pull up to a group of four barges that look like they could have been sitting there for years. One of them had 3 weed trees, one at least three years old. The tug then pushed the front end out into the river, and then back to their original position while a man dicked around on the barges. The tug picked up the man and left.

Nope. No I haven't. Not me. However, you seem to have a story here, and it's pretty neat.

I am in a park in St. Louis county that has a trail that runs along the river. It also affords fine views of a casino, lol.

I knew a guy who worked for the MS River engineer department (forgot the official name), they do work on tributaries, ports, canals,etc...

I got to tour one of those big boats, it was nice, three levels, nice quarters, two kitchens, nice dining hall,etc...

If you join the coast guard you'd do some time on a boat like that...

Back Im the 90s I knew a guy that worked the barges, he would go on and on about how dangerous it is.
