Shoo Fly...You bother me!

Signs that you "might" have been on the river too long:
1.  You see a boat in a cove, look away for few seconds, and then it’s gone when you look back.
2.  You stop paddling to take a quick drink of water, and then start paddling UP stream.

3.  You drop a crumb from your Pop tart.  You pick it up, blow off the sand and eat it because food supplies are low.
4.  You strike a fire in wood that is loaded with mayflies and get swarmed.  "Oh My Gracious Alive!"

Just one day and a wakeup behind schedule to reach St Louis for Fourth of July fireworks. Several cycles of bad weather, followed by a day of good, has necessitated us to take two days of "0" mileage.  We are making every effort possible to get back on schedule, but it looks more and more like we will have to make up the time once we pass through the last lock just north of St Louis.
Should still arrive in Memphis as scheduled, on July 18th.

Today started with rain and ended with rain. In spite of the rain, we are now poised just above Lock #14, ready to make the final push into the Quad Cities tomorrow for a Noon meeting with press and friends. If you are in the area, please stop by and say hello.  We will be at the Schweibert Park ramp, just below Lock #15 in Rock Island, at noon tomorrow.
A few more pictures, shared from friends today!
