Mississippi River At Herculaneum, Missouri
The River View Drew Couple To Their New Home........
Beloved memories of watching barges along the Mississippi River with her mother in St. Louis' Bellerive Park prompted Bev Dougherty and her husband to look for a weekend home along the Mississippi River.
For years, she and her husband Pat, searched for riverfront properties from north of St. Louis to Louisiana, Missouri, downstream to Chester, Illinois. Bev said that she wanted a place where she could see the whites of the riverboat captain's eyes.
Bev says that in 2012, her daughter Liz called and said that she had found a promising listing in Herculaneum, and they drove out to have a look. When she got out of the car and saw the expansive view of the river, she exclaimed "This is it!"........

River Destinations
Ohio River At Cave-In-Rock, Illinois
Cave-In-Rock Has Evolved From Pirate Lair To Tourist Attraction.........
Each year, several hundred thousand visitors trek to the tiny Ohio River village of Cave-In-Rock to take in the huge cave carved out of the limestone bluffs along the Ohio River. At one time, however, the cave wasn't very inviting.
An article written in 2015 and published in Atlas Obscura painted a dark picture of the cave. Headlined A Cave of Villainy on the Ohio River, the article made it clear that the cave was no tourist destination for pioneers and settlers heading west in the late 1700s and early 1800s.
The cave was "discovered" by French explorer M. De Lery in 1739. He called the cave caverne dans Le Roc. The article states that around 1790. the cave became a base camp for river pirates who would ambush flatboats carrying cargo along the Ohio River........

The St. Louis Aquarium
Every Week Is Shark Week........
Every summer, the Discover Channel hosts their Shark Week, which begins Sunday evening. The long-running, Shark week enthralls audiences from all over the world with programming that features marine biology, celebrities and shark attacks.
A little closer to home, the St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station allows visitors to celebrate Shark Week at any time. The attraction had opened in December, and following the short closure due to the COVID-19 outbreak, it reopened in early June.
The aquarium's Shark Canyon habitat makes visitors believe that they are along the coast of New Zealand or Australia as they watch sharks prowling through the water. The 250,000 gallon tank is home to blacktip and whitetip reef sharks, sandbar sharks, zebra and nurse sharks, as well as rays and largemouth guitarfish........
