The towboat Natures Way Endeavor banks a barge against the western bank of the Mississippi River, Monday as an 18-wheeler crosses the Interstate 20 bridge. Cleanup crews with booms skimmed oily water from the Mississippi River after a barge leaked nearly 7,000 gallons of oil after striking a railroad bridge near Vicksburg.
