Yes we were on the rise of the trail near the Point Bridge piers. I started
out with over 300 photographs from that night and deleted 2/3rds of them.
A highlight of the evening was hearing the deep throated whistle from the
Delta Queen several times on possibly her last trip to Pittsburgh. In a
great show of intelligence, she left her mooring at the North Shore about 1
hour before the fireworks and headed down the Ohio to a safer place.
Congress needs to pass the exemption of wooden boats to keep her in service.
