According to my mom, the last time she remembers the Ohio River being completely covered in ice was when she was 15 or 16, so as soon as my sister came in this morning and said the river was frozen from one side to the other, we hurridly got dressed and headed towards Gallipolis (Ohio).

When we arrived, we discovered that a barge had come through and broken up the ice, but the river was still mostly ice covered. After taking a few shots from the Ohio side of the river, we hopped in the car and headed to Pt. Pleasant, West Virginia, headed through the flood gate, and snapped a few more pictures.

This picture is of the Silver Memorial Bridge, which replaced the Silver Bridge that collapsed in the late 60's.
