Chapter 6 of the ongoing web series Old Man River is out and it brings yet another intriguing episode for our viewing pleasure. The crew continues its 2400 mile (3862km) journey down the length of the Mississippi River, with conditions getting both better and getting worse this week.
The rains have stopped, which makes for better life on the river and the boat passes St. Louis, which means no more locks and dams. But the Mississippi is now at flood stages, which presents its own brand of issues.
Enjoy!
