Riding the Julia Belle Swain















The Hattery-Nelson-Orr Reunion continued on Saturday with a ride on one of the last 4 steam-powered paddleboats on the Upper Mississippi, the Julia Belle Swain.














Uncle John Hattery, his son Doug and grandson Travis joined us on board

Some of the best seats on the boat were outside, watching the rain and fog. Alissa, Casey and Frances were having fun. Kate was trying to stay warm!!








































Lothar and Ruth were in their own little world for awhile.
















And others were trying to figure out what happened to the Bloody Mary mix!

















And all the while, the river slipped by...
