It moved around from day to day, but most of the time it was tied to some trees near the fishing access. Now the water has gone down, and the houseboat is sitting on dry ground.

Successful festival
THE Girl Scouts' Festival of Lights was a great success in spite of the cold. There were lots of donations for the Elks' Christmas baskets and warm Christmas cheer.

Neck injury

Nice facilities
IT had been a while since I was in downtown Cape Girardeau, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the new parking lot and restroom facilities at Broadway and Water Street. This is a major improvement that also serves visitors to our beautiful riverfront. Thanks to everyone responsible.
