Meeting at Huntington

Around noon today, the mv. Wally Roller of American Commercial Barge Lines and the Harllee Branch Jr. of Ingram Marine met as they approached the Robert C. Byrd Bridge between downtown Huntington WV and Chesapeake OH. The Wally Roller was upbound and passed under the bridge first.

The two boats passed port-to-port at Harris Riverfront Park.

After they passed, the Harllee Branch Jr. passed under the bridge and headed on down the river.



The river was running a caramel brown because of all the rain we had late last week. More on that later.

If the river had been a spring blue or a summer algae green ... oh, if only.

Good to finally have some one spot the Wally Roller. I have been wondering how long it took to do the repairs from its February grounding?
