    St. James Episcopal Day School asks: Have you seen any animal wildlife on this trip down the Mississippi that you did not see on you first trip down river?  If so, what animals have you seen?    CC answers:  Nothing new that was not seen on the Mississippi.  So far we have seen numerous species of ducks and geese, white-tail deer, a beaver and the always present Great Blue Heron.
    L.J. Alleman Middle School asks: How fast does the water go on the Ohio River and on the Mississippi River?    CC answers: It depends on the volume of water in the river. In the spring, when the water is high, it flows six miles an hour. In the fall, when the water is low, it slows down to two miles per hour.
    St. Mary's Nativity School asks: We are curious about the Wetland Wanderer. Does it have a crew, or do you drive it and do all of the chores? How far do you travel in one day and how long will it take you to reach Louisiana?    Sue answers: Luckily this week we had CC's best buddy Jimbo as a deck hand, normally its just CC and I. We do all the chores and all the driving. We can go 100 to 130 miles per day if we are in a hurry. It was supposed to take us ten days, but due to engine problems it we will take longer than this. Stick with us we will be home soon.
