PetrikinSjourney On Ohio and Mississippi Voyage
Petrikin, a well known traveler and banker from Greeley, recently returned from a 20 day pleasure voyage on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers from Cincinnati to New Orleans and back. He described the trip as unique and different, comparing it with his Yukon and Nile expeditions, noting vast river scenery, historic stops, and a sternwheel steamboat voyage aboard the Gordon Green, with Mary Greene aboard, carrying about 160 passengers on a 200 capacity boat. He observed yellow river water reminiscent of the Ganges and described the boat’s plain meals, entertainment, and limited private amenities, as well as the leveed riverbanks and numerous locks along the route.
