Hi everyone,
I am fairly new to this group but the steamboats have always held a special place in my heart. Living in Vicksburg, MS I got to see them when they came into town to take on supplies, fuel and as a day stop for passengers.
The Mississippi Queen and its recent demise has really hurt me and its hard to explain why but I always felt an attachment to it and the Delta Queen. I have started a group on Facebook dedicated to the memory of the legendary MQ. My group is not intended in anyway to detract from this site or the other groups that are out there. I would like to formally invite any of you that would like to come join the group and contribute to it. I am sure that many of you may have pictures, stories, documents and memories that can be shared about a past time that was almost taken away from us. I would love to hear from any of you that want to come be with us. Today we added over 500 new pictures and a video.
Thank-You for your time and hope to see you there.
