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.

A short summary of a visit to the area around the St. Louis Arch in St. Louis Missouri.
Filmed on a Canon 60D with a Sigma 28mm Prime lens @24p. It was very sunny that day so I had to set aperture pretty low. Color corrected with Premiere Pro CS5.
Facts about the Arch:
The Gateway Arch is the tallest national monument in the United States at 630 feet.
Construction began February 12, 1963, and the last section of the Arch was put into place on October 28, 1965.
The Arch weighs 17,246 tons. Nine hundred tons of stainless steel was used to build the Arch, more than any other project in history.
The Arch was built at a cost of $13 million.

From the 20’s comes this timely piece of music, which I am presenting to in some small way bring attention to the tragedy that has been unfolding on the Mississippi River and to honor all those who are giving their all to save the property and life of those who have little.
Please join with me in prayer if you believe, and / or support of the Red Cross if you don’t as we face yet another challenge in our nation.
Thanks to all who view and share.
