This is good..knowing that the river was almost dry what 4 months ago.. mississy river is a major river that ships go through that don't need to be dry..

[@timburton5950]

good news for the barges run aground due to lack of water; was only months ago they were showing how one could walk across the mighty river and the impact on shipping.
