Quinsippi Island Now Has a New Look
One of the benefits of living on the Mississippi River is the wonderful view of the landscape including the river itself. Well, the view of that landscape has changed over the past weekend.
In an effort to open up the view of the river even more, the southern tip of Quinsippi Island underwent a transformation Saturday when crews began cutting down trees in the area basically from the lighthouse to the southern edge of the island. The trees were felled to provide a better view of the river to the north.
According to the Executive Director of the Quincy Park District, Rome Frericks, the Quincy Boat Club, with approval from the Quincy Park District and the Army Corps of Engineers, took on this project so as to provide an even better view of the Mississippi River for people in Clat Adams Park, the businesses on the riverfront as well as the Boat Club itself.

The Log Cabin Village is Now The Home To Bald Eagles
As the holiday time period of Christmas to New Year s Day progresses, many people are wondering just what can we do today? Well, I have the perfect way to spend part an afternoon...visit the Log Cabin Village on Quinsippi Island in Quincy.
Speaking of spending, there is no spending needed to stop by and enjoy history right in front of your eyes. Every time I go there I am amazed at how our pioneers ever survived the frigid winters of the past.
As an added bonus, the Herald Whig recently reported that the Log Cabin Village has become inhabited by bald eagles. So pick out a decent day and head down to the riverfront and absorb what mother nature and our nation s history has to offer and it is all free.
