Day two of our cruise to Pittsburg was wonderful! We love small town America and we experienced some shining examples of it today! Left Marietta Boat Club (thanks for the hospitality) and headed up river to St Mary's where we found a candy shop to enjoy a carmel and chocolate covered pretzel stick. Wandered around and looked at some wonderful old homes. Notice in the pic with the train car that they still have a pay phone.....haha, haven't seen one of those in while! Continued upriver to our next stop, Sistersville. Another quaint town with tons of history. More great homes, the longest running ferry on the river, AND I finally found a DQ to agree to do both crunch coat and dip in chocolate....yum! Back aboard we moved up river again to our current location at New Martinsville. Docked at a brand new free city dock and after a good Ole Ohio River bath we wandered up into town and had an excellent Mexican dinner (highly recommend Dos Hermanos). Walked off full bellies looking at more great history and now back down to the boat to sit in our zero gravity chairs and enjoy a wonderful sunset. God is good!
