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).

Check out my musical journey over the Morganza Spillway on May 16, 2011. At the time of this filming, 9 of the 125 gates are open. According to Wikipedia, The Morganza Spillway, a 3,900-foot (1,200 m) controlled spillway using a set of flood gates to control the volume of water entering the Morganza Floodway from the Mississippi River, consists of a concrete weir, two sluice gates, seventeen scour indicators, and 125 gated openings which can allow up to 600,000 cubic feet per second (17,000 m3/s) of water to be diverted from the Mississippi River into the Atchafalaya Basin during major floods.
