After the Lucky Lady moved to North America and her brief stint in the movie, she was ready for some serious attention and TLC . . . . four years worth.  Not really sure of her story for the next 30 years, but one can only imagine that she probably sat idle for most of that time.  She was raffled off at one point, but the winner didn't claim her as he couldn't afford the moving costs.

Jimmy Evans discovered her in a storage lot in Colorado while walking one day and she moved to Louisville,  KY, in early 2011.  This was a huge undertaking, as the top deck/roof had to be taken off and she was considered a "Wide Load."  This move was time consuming and expensive.

She seemed to enjoy herself in the Ohio River, as did her many passengers. . . especially her passengers.  She would depart Louisville on 9/6/2016 and thus begin this journey; the next chapter.
