Along the Ohio River (April 10-12, 2023)

Once again we visited Rising Sun. It is a favorite place for us to go, and we enjoyed it as usual. Especially so this trip as temperatures were in the 70's and under clear blue skies. 

Took the photo at left in Aurora, Indiana which is nearby. Was the former residence of a riverboat captain, and is now a museum that you can tour. Beautiful house with a commanding view of the Ohio River. 

Directly below is some old buildings in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. That is also a fun town to wander and explore. Below that the Bicycle Shop in Aurora. Owner is fantastic and a wonderful guy.   

A morning view from the hotel room in Rising Sun. Love the mornings and evenings at sunset there. A lot of interesting sights. I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky also along the Ohio River and have always enjoyed walking along its shores to see the sights and the animals wandering along and above its shores.

Below is the boat Hoosier Boy which set some speed records back in the day. The engine is a WW1 Liberty Aircraft engine. Many of those motors were surplus after the war, and were used in other aircraft as well as put to other uses...such as hydrofoils.
