Joliet

Well, it's now our third day tied up to the wall in Joliet, IL. There were 2 boats when we arrived, there are now 9. One boat is a family of 5 from France, another is a couple from London. We are all waiting for the Marseilles Lock near Ottawa to open up. It's still closed as a result of flood water from last Saturday.

We are becoming quite the experts on Route 66 and the Blue's Brothers, both favorite topics around Joliet. Hope we can leave tomorrow but the lock masters are not making any commitment. Love to all.
