barge 2

to me the ohio river is art.  to others, it's a place to take a boat, park outside the riverbend music center during a concert and enjoy the fresh air and music.  yet, it's still a highway, a practical place to transport really big goods.  


it's really impressive to watch these quiet barges go by.  and in the wake,
so tiny, you might not be able to see it, was a kayak.  one person, tiny boat, big river.  
useful beauty.  
joy to you!

  1. Is that all coal in that barge? I wonder if it's headed my way...most coal ends up in my neck of the woods for a brief while, after all.

  2. Well, I'm glad you pointed out the kayak. I would have totally missed it on my own. Great way to get some fresh air and exercise!
