That looks like such a neat job Laura! I love the water be it ocean or river...whatever, I'd love to have a job like yours. Being away from your kitties and home must be difficult though. What does the barge carry? The barges we used to see around here were loaded with trash, and garbage to be dumped way out in the ocean. I'm glad they no longer do this though. Great pictures, and the galley looks like a great place to cook.
