First Not Always Best KANSAS CITY river pilot arrives
Leroy Drury, 41, captain for Huffman Towing Co., reached Kansas City aboard the Missouri River on the first day of spring after a three day run from St. Louis. He says being first brings no glory and notes navigational challenges with few buoys and lights. His 10 man crew delivered three empty barges for loading cement to Omaha, risking grounding in the Kansas City area but finishing with a “real good trip.”
