Enjoyed watching this, I have visited Madison a few times in the past with my family, & came back as an adult to visit. We always stayed at Clifty Falls State Park. I remember the original lodge, that had a nice back porch, with a great view of the Ohio River. It was a very charming place, but was destroyed by a tornado, on April 3, 1974. The lodge was rebuilt after that, and years later, in the early 2000’s, got a major upgrade to the lodge, & adjoining restaurant. It’s a nice place for a getaway trip for a few days. If you stay there, get a river view room, it’s so relaxing to look out at the river. Only drawback, is the view of the coal plant that is just across from the park. Madison is a beautiful town, fun to stroll around, & relax, & look at the shops. I remember an old-fashioned soda fountain in the downtown, that served delicious hand-made malts, & shakes. I can’t recall the name, they might not be there anymore. Lots of beautiful old buildings in the town, that have been well-preserved.
Great video!

Fought one of my best friends in that caboose. What a great childhood. God, I miss that town. May move back some day.
I’m amazed they don’t wear life jackets.
