Norwegian Ice Breaker clears the Mississippi River ( Pic )

As you may have seen on the news it's been very cold.
 

So cold, in fact, that the US Corp of Engineers has borrowed a Norwegian Icebreaker to clear the Mississippi River for freighter traffic.

The Icebreaker is starting near Davenport and working its way northward.

Here is a picture as the hard work of ice breaking begins.

My biggest fear is when I die my wife sells all of my fishing tackle for what she thinks I paid for it!
