Fourth of July

A spectacular day.  Nice sun.  Lots  of wind.  Two tugs and a cruise ship in the navigation lock.  Lucky me today. I love it when tugs with barges come through the locks. The Bonneville Navigation Lock is 675 ft long and 86 ft wide.  Some of the barge combinations ( with tug) fill up the length have two feet to spare on the width.  Impressive to watch as they carefully enter the space.
