My daughter picked me up for ice cream

We went up the river to Newport, Oh. She didn't realize our timing allowed us to watch the river boat American Queen go by as she headed upriver. What a pleasant and special evening As far as I know, the American Queen is the largest paddlewheel on the river.

My niece had her wedding reception on the Reuben E Lee many years ago. A nice venue. I didn't realize it had been demolished, too bad.
