I've worked my way up to bag #29.
The crew quarters, Pilot house, Paddlewheel are done but not locked down. Probably a good thing because I noticed I have a Re-Do (Red Circle).
Don't think there is supposed to be a gap in the smoke stacks. Whatever I did wrong assembling these I managed to it twice

Hmm, before I tried to fix the smoke stack error, I zoomed in on the build instructions I had downloaded. I couldn't see what had to be done to correct the gaps. My next step was to go to the LEGO website and download a couple of their build shots showing the smoke stacks.
By golly theirs looked the same as mine. No Re-Do required

You were wrong about being wrong which means you still had a re-do (logic courtesy of my wife 
).

Excellent observation on her part
The detail that Lego has in their products is amazing.
Yup, I've always been fascinated by the odd brick shapes that are in some their creations. This participation website is great, LEGO Ideas, lot's of individual submissions for a future LEGO product.

All done.
I'll take and post better photos when we have a sunny day.
For now the indoor photos.
