Howdy folks,
Just wanted to say hello. Last summer my (now) fiancee' and I paddled 2,150 miles down the Mississippi and Atchafalaya rivers to help raise awareness of the Audubon Society's Upper Mississippi Campaign. Itasca and North Minnesota were beautiful, and I'm hoping to get up that way again soon.
We're considering taking a steamboat cruise for the honeymoon this spring when we get hitched.
If you want more infomation about the expedition, gear, photos, blogs, etc, our site is www.sourcetosea.net
Take care,
-John

Mississippi Howl is a book I bought mail order after reading about it here. I did not keep the book- I gave it to a friend so I am not 100% sure of the title. It was about an older couple who paddled the length of the Mississippi.
Also, many couples honeymoon on the steamboats.
Time on the river is never wasted. That is the truth of the matter.
