from that dirty water to muddy river

as we get ready to rush back home, i felt we needed to see and feel the mississippi river, which has defined so much of early u.s. history.





rivers always have some appeal, if not as strong for us as shorelines.





that lasted about 5 seconds. fortunately, there is also a playground here. :)

back home in two days of insane driving... then regroup and reconsider...
