St. Charles Belle paddleboat. St Charles Illinois. June 1984.

During the 1980's...I made several visits to Potawatomi Park in far west suburban St. Charles Illinois with My Family.
A fun and popular seasonal attraction at Potawatomi Park, are the leisurely sightseeing boat crusies aboard the St. Charles Belled on the Fox River.
Although they are strictly cosmetic, the twin smoke stacks and rotating non powered free spinning paddle wheel add a tasteful yesteryear touch to this modern diesel powered sightseeing boat. A pleasant way to enjoy a weekend afternoon during the warm weather months.
This photo was taken at the boat landing, during a June 1984 Family visit.
