How did they get submarines from Lake Michigan to the Mississippi River?

After doing 300 ft dives in the lake, they cut the tops off and barged them from Chicago through several rivers/canals to the Mississippi, then down to New Orleans where they were welded back together.

On road trips, I also listen XM radio. If it's just me, I'll listen to First Wave, Deep Cuts, Classic Vinyl, Classic Rewind. If the family is there, we compromise with The Bridge or Coffee Shop.

This weekend I had on 104.5 alternative while I did way too much yard work.
