Amblin around on the 90-foot paddle wheeler adventure

A narrator and Judy Glasscock rented a private 1 hour cruise on a 90-foot stern paddle wheeler on Lake Austin from Greenshores to Tom Miller Dam for $4.50 total, paying $1.50 each. The Commodore, skippered by Marion Fowler with wife as aide, carried 250,000 since opening. Dudley Fowler, their son, was photographed in 1968. The lake bustle included cottages and boats, with safety warnings about dangerous passes near the ship. The party traveled with Charles DeBarbri and Bob’s Nova, driving via Fort Stockton Fredericksburg to Austin for a Miami trip next week.
