Living Lands And Waters Barge – 8/29/2024

Danelle went to a Mississippi River Water Trail Association meeting on the educational barge belonging to Living Lands and Waters. These two groups are true powerhouses in education and stewardship of the Mississippi River! The barge was parked just downstream of the Mel Price Lock and Dam in Alton.

One highlight of the event was a sunset tour of the outdoor spaces of the barge, including looking at the unique metalworking of the railings.

Another highlight was the swarm of mayflies that joined us on deck.
