For some time now I've been meaning to write The Waterways Journal to tell you and Capt. David Smith just how much I have enjoyed the "Old Boat" column. These old boats were certainly an integral part of river history. Capt. Smith's articles help to keep river history alive with his superbly written and professionally researched series of stories. This is exactly what one would expect from a true professional. I've known and worked with Capt. Smith in the past on various river-related projects. Each involvement was a pleasant and rewarding experience for me. I must say some of those old boats are coming up on my stern pretty fast. I can remember seeing some of them when they were still working. I guess almost 90 birthdays would have something to do with that. |
