The riverboat Natchez is really a beautiful boat to admire and watching moving beautifully through the water. The HUGE paddlewheel is a sight in and of itself. Sit back for just a minute and “be” rolling on the river, in New Orleans with the riverboat Natchez!

The Twilight Riverboat passing Clinton, Iowa’s riverfront at approx 10:30am on 09.13.09. For some reason they weren’t playing it’s Calliope music. You can hear it here: http://www.steamboats.org/whistle-calliope/calliope-twilight.html
From www.steamboats.org:
The Twilight was designed by Capt. Dennis Trone (see also Julia Belle Swain) in the style of the great old passenger boats. The boat was built by Levac Shipyard in Jennings, LA, and finished by Dennis Trone in 1987 in LeClaire, IA. The construction shows how much Dennis Trone loves these wonderful boats. Unfortunately the boat isn’t run by paddlewheels but by a diesel engine and propellers.
Based in LeClaire, IA, the Twilight offers 2-day-cruises from May til October from LeClaire to Galena, IL, and return (reservations 800-331-1467).

Come on board the authentic paddlewheeler Creole Queen for a journey down the great Mississippi River. She is a traditional-style paddle-wheeler built in 1983 in Moss Point, Mississippi. She has old-world charm and authentic Victorian décor. Watch as we build-up a head of steam and leave port of New Orleans. A riverboat cruise is a unique and enchanting way to step back in time.

What lies beneath the surface of the mighty Mississippi? Last summer Dr. Brian Waldron and Dr. Beatrice Magnani led a team of investigators searching for answers to the mystery of what lies beneath the surface of the Mississippi River. Does the river’s muddy water conceal hidden, as yet undiscovered faults? How does our aquifer, the source of our drinking water, interact with the Mississippi River?
