- Two Maine artists are making a full-length trip down the Mississippi River this summer with the goal of documenting the changing flow of the river and its people.
Morgan Rogers and Emily du Houx, both of Maine, recently completed their handbuilt shanty boat and set off on their journey Monday, July 11, in St. Paul with plans to reach New Orleans by early September.
They named their boat Michi Zeebee, the Native American name for the Mississippi.
WOW! this is awesome! i'm an artist too, following
Hope they brought food! I doubt the fishing would be edible.

people eat fish from the mississippi river all the time.
