This open letter goes out to all my River Rat friends that count on River Bills flood levels and party announcements.
I am Barry Munsell, the real one. That means that the other Barry Munsell whose birthday was this past week is NOT ME. But he is a nice guy and we are related somehow.
I am the mechanic who has worked on many of your boats up and down this pool. I’ve also spent many weekends on the rivers sandbars dating back to a time when Jerry and Kak Groeblinghoff and Mr River Bill Kelley himself and I were all raising our kids on the River.
In 2004 I decided that I would need to learn how to sail if I were ever going to be able to travel long distances by water and I meant salt water. I’ve been doing that now since 2010. Bahamas and The coasts of Florida, Alabama and Georgia became my winter waters to explore.
Last winter Judy and I with crew left Key West and after traveling for 5 days ended up here in Isla Mujeres Mexico which is just across a small bay from Cancun. Then we explored Belize Guatemala, Roatan Honduras and all points in between.
Last year while here in Isla, we met another Hunter sailboat owner who had brought their sailboat down here 8 years ago and have flown in every year to spend the winters here and away from Pennsylvanian winters. There is an inner lagoon hurricane hole here that the boat goes to every off season. It isn’t expensive to keep a boat here and there is no risk in buying or selling your boat while you are here. While I’m on that subject, there are no cartel activities here that I can tell. The only business these folks do is to sell me a margarita and some seafoods!
So there you have it. This 2005 46 foot Hunter Sailboat is for sale for 100k. That’s been reduced because the owners are having some health issues but they are still here now enjoying their boat.
I know this is long and if you are still reading, call me and I’ll tell you all the details. But you may want to look at the ad first. This boat has everything! Barry 3143638235

2026 Confluence Trash Bash - Saturday, April 11th
Protect land and water in the St. Louis area
Be part of one of the largest volunteer clean-up events in the metro area and help beautify the Mississippi and Missouri River watersheds.________________________________________
Open Space STL and its partners invite the public to be part of the 2026 Confluence Trash Bash, happening April 11th in the St. Louis area. Confluence Trash Bash partners for 2026 include; Great Rivers Greenway, MSD Project Clear, the Earthways Center, Saint Louis County Parks and Recreation Department, Missouri Department of Transportation, The Audubon Center at Riverlands, Mississippi River Water Trail Association, The Alpine Shop, Missouri Stream Teams, and The Sierra Club.
One of the largest annual cleanup efforts in the area, the Confluence Trash Bash is a chance to help clean up the rivers and creeks within the Lower Missouri River and Mississippi watersheds. Volunteers can sign up to volunteer and choose from multiple cleanup locations or storm drain marking sites within the watershed beginning. Site leaders will be present at each cleanup location to provide instructions and supplies and to lead the cleanup.
The event is free, and all volunteers will be provided with work gloves and trash bags to use for the cleanups. Participants will also receive a free t-shirt while supplies last. Volunteers must pre-register and complete a liability waiver to receive their free t-shirt, select a cleanup site, and help event organizers coordinate supplies. Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to help with this Trash Bash, but children must have adult supervision.
During the 2025 Confluence Trash Bash, we had quite the impact on our watersheds:
● 504 volunteers
● 70 tons of trash removed
● 233 tires cleared out
● 30 clean up sites
● 12 municipalities participated
● 67 storm drains marked
Volunteers are encouraged to join us at The Audubon Center at Riverlands from 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM for a post-clean up picnic as well as the Passport to Clean Water, an educational program for youth. Learn about water quality and conservation with many environmental partners from across the region.
To register for the Piasa Palisades Group’s site, Click here.
If you’d like to view the different locations’ sign ups through Open Space STL’s volunteer platform, Click here.
