Not long ago, I was invited to tour this old showboat. The weather was perfect as was the company.

When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store.

The showboat was designated U.S. National Historic Landmark on 24 December 1967. She was placed on the 'Threatened Historical Landmarks' list in 2001.

One of two remaining examples of the modern era of showboats that ended in the 1920s, *********** is the largest and most elaborately decorated of the showboats. She provided entertainment in the form of minstrel shows, vaudeville, and serious drama. The boat is designed in the manner of a 19th century showboat rather than a late 20th century one, in other words, not like a paddlewheeler steamboat.

What a great find!

Hope someone will be able to drydock & start the preservation process before it is too late..

This is why I love exploring! You never know what's hidden behind those crumbling exteriors. Diamond in the dirt right here.
