What In tarnation? 'Amphicar' spotted in Mississippi River at Wabasha

Wait a minute?!!! Why would anyone drive their car into the water, as Doug Klink of La Crosse is obviously doing here at Parkside Marina last Thursday? Because it’s an amphicar and it’s built to float on water. That’s why! Joining him

There they go! Doug, Steve, Cheryl and Lynn cruise up the river on a beautiful Friday, no doubt catching the eye of many befuddled and curious observers on shore!

are his wife, Cheryl, and Steve and Lynn Johnson. The four had just made their voyage up to Camp Lacupolis and returned on Highway 61 before putting in again at Parkside for a return down the river.

If you saw this out on the Mississippi River near Wabasha last Friday, your eyes weren’t playing tricks on you! These are some photos taken of Doug and Cheryl Klink of La Crosse and his cousin, Steve Johnson of Wabasha and his wife, Lynn, riding Doug’s “amphicar” between the Wabasha Marina and Camp Lacupolis.
