Joliet, IL to Ottawa, IL


Today started out by calling the lockmaster at Brandon Road at 6:30am. The lockmaster gave us the green light to head down river! Andrew and I got underway as quick as possible.  We also locked through the Dresden lock and Dam and the Marseilles Lock. Marseilles was our last lock of the day since Starved Rock Lock and Dam was closed for repairs.











Barge traffic was lighter than what we were expecting.






We stopped in Ottawa for the night and enjoyed their homecoming football game.
