My folks trusted me alot as they dropped me off in Evansville IN to live with the owner, his family, and the crew. We were there for about a month then moved the boat to it's summer port, Peoria IL (which is where I grew up) and then I stayed with my grandparents during the week. Bought my first car (a pretty worn out 66 Mustang for $250) Got to meet John Hartford, he was something;) He got inspiration from the river life and traveled with us when we moved the boat. At 15 MPH upstream it took about a week to travel to IL. He would play his "fiddle" and do a jig in the pilot house.
