The river has dropped 1 1/2ft., in the last few days....but, we had some severe storms yesterday and that has it on the rise, again. Around here, if you stay on I-155 until you get out of the bottoms, you'll be ok.
The water has dropped about a foot and still going down. It will take some heavy rains up north to push it back up. Went down to the end of the big levee and saw where a farmer has 2 huge pumps running 24/7, trying to drain his fields.
Took them with the Kodak that I got little over a year ago, takes way better stills. The killdeer was about 10 ft. from the truck. I just cropped a 640x480 section from the pic.
Here's a couple of pics of 2 old barns, that I took the same day.
I live right on the Ohio River and see all kinds of boats. One of the show boats or something comes up through here a couple of times a year. Something like the Mississippi Queen or something.
