Our Visit to Paducah, Ky

We welcomed a steady crowd of visitors on Monday in Paducah, Ky. While here, our boat's owner and project partner Ron Drake was named an honorary Kentucky Colonel along with our trip master John Cooper.

Our intern, Casey McCoy who had tired of walking up and down the hill to the flatboat found us a new mode of transportation at a Segway store downtown. He so enjoyed riding it through Paducah's eclectic downtown area. And while Abraham Lincoln would have been on a horse instead, we think he just might have enjoyed the segway too if he could have riden one around Southern Indiana as a boy!
