Boats on the Ohio

Ohio History
A Day on the River
Here’s another picturesque scene with sunlight dancing around bobbing boats. West Virginia actually owns this part of the Ohio River up to the low-water mark (that was Virginia’s original boundary). We traveled down the Ohio River past Buckley Island and then turned back. There was once an amusement park on the island—till it was destroyed by a flood! What a lovely ride!!

Is that West Virginia we are looking at? I'd love to live on that boat.

Looks like fun.

This is actually the Ohio side here. Most of the docks were on that side. Did you notice the docks are much higher than the waterline? That's so they don't get washed away when the river floods.

Looks like some white snow landed on the water!
