Scrapped

I'll get back to photos from the Big Sandy area soon. My day job has kept me busy with end-of-year stuff.

But I did want to take note of this while it was fresh in my mind. Today the mailman delivered by year-end issue of the Waterways Journal. In the list of boats taken out of service this year it said the M/V Senator Stennis was scrapped. Here's a photo from August 2015 when I saw it shoved up against the bank at Huntington WV.


The Senator Stennis was one of those boats that I saw in the area every now and then. I guess its usefulness had run out.

The WJ also listed the American Queen as "Out of service, fate unknown."
