Boat obviously full & heavy in the water compared to when it went upriver.

11:09 AM Small tug and barge called Tenasillahe. The barge apparently named after Tenasillahe Island, which is near where we are on the Columbia. It came from downriver, turned around the island, and headed back downriver on the other side of the island.
