I've been lucky enough to see the Mississippi River in St. Louis, Missouri and New Orelans, Louisiana. This time I was amazed yet again by the river in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
This time I was able to see one of the locks and falls on the river.
..an engineer marvel!
You can see the river swiftly running between Minneapolis and St. Paul on the left
and the locks on the right.
River taming isn't for the meek!
Keeping the water where it should be and keeping the
boats/barges going up or down river is a full time job!
The Stone Arch bridge in the background is a great place to walk across
the Mississippi and see the locks from all sides.
This isn't the usual picture when you imagine what the Mississippi looks like.
There's always a surprise around every bend in life!
Around the world today:
