Winter in America is cold


Bridge over the Mississippi at Cape Girardeau

What a cold day, breezey and freezing.
"Winter in America is cold and I just keep growing older"........Doug Ashdown version was best.

Made a very quick walk around the old part of town and then headed back to the bunker to keep working.

Cotton fields in winter

Missouri is flaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttt.
The main geographic feature is the Mississippi but you can't see that unless you’re standing in it.

It is winter here and the fields are bare except for the bits and pieces of cotton left over from harvest.

Weather has been milder than expected; no snow yet for this stay.

I thought I knew what a bayou was; ie some type of Louisiana swamp that was somehow “blue” but up here it is applied to slow moving low lying streams as well.

Take care y'all.
