I worked on a tug on the ICW when I first got out of the USCG and lived in SE Texas. Welcome aboard!
Welcome from Central Nebraska! I worked with a fella that was a retired barge captain on the Ohio. Saw some pictures of those barges and never realized how big they actually are until you see a person on one for scale! So what's your favorite blend? What pipe are you smoking? Have you started singing sea shanties in a grizzled ole sailors voice yet?
Welcome aboard from central North Carolina. I can't believe how high the banks of the Ohio River are at Cincinnati and Covington, that they would have chosen that deep a river bed for the cities, and fast running. It accommodates the bridges but not much for a river port. I like Covington for its public German Pied Piper clock and what may still be a puppet theater, and Cinci for its pasta and chili fast food and multi-story Ohio Book Store.
Reggie, tell us more about your work on the tow boat. That sounds interesting. I was a minesweeper radioman years ago, U.S.S. Gallant, during the Peloponnesian War (as it were). But I was aboard for about a year, trained as a radioman, so my seamanship is limited. Are you licensed by the Coast Guard?
Welcome from Michigan but a true Ohioan!
Enjoy your job, there is nothing like it.
See you on the one bell
