When got out of there I took a drive threw the park by the river like I do often. It charges my batteries.. What do I see parked across the river at the levy near down town... One of the big boats. Get the field glasses out take a look and it is the Queen.. I'm not even sure if I've seen this one for a while? Not as big as the America's Queen. But certainly not small. Got to other end of the park see the local tour boat (LaCrosse Queen) headed up river.. No where near as big as the Queen of the Mississippi.. Pic give you good idea of size differance.
