Herald-Whig (Quincy, Illinois) Photo Essay About the “Mules West” Ramble

Published June 17, 2019

Waiting to cross the bridge across the Mississippi. This barn is on the farm where Todd Curry of Quincy, Illinois, grew up. Todd and his wife Julie are giving me and the mules a place to rest for a few days. Full photo essay at the Herald-Whig. (Herald-Whig / Katelyn Metzger photo)

A wonderful photo essay in the June 13 issue of the Quincy Herald-Whig. It shows how mules Brick and Cracker and I are passing the time waiting to cross the Mississippi River. Check it out and scroll through the photos here at the Herald-Whig.

Thanks Herald Whig staffers Ethan Colbert and Katelyn Metzger for the wonderful photo essay. Tip ‘o the hat to Todd and Julie for putting us up these past days (and keeping the mules and me fueled with a steady stream of cracked corn and foam-cup coffee. Yeee haaaa!)
