Lumpy

Had to stop at Menards today and noticed the nastiest pile of winter snow dregs you ever did see.  This worker was relieving stress by picking up dirty snow lumps with his forklift and dropping them from great heights to watch them smash on the ground. 

Atrophy

When we passed through Dubuque, we saw this lovely old brewery in a incredibly sad state of disrepair.  According to one online article, it's been in this state for many years.  I hope they can find someone to restore it to it's former glory.

It's kinda hard to see, but there are pigeons waddling around on the box where the upper window should be and a tree growing out of the side of the building.

Gorgeously

It was a beautiful day in Bellevue, IA when we stopped to see Lock & Dam 12.

Whimsically

Saw this cute little guy on our trip.

Indistinctly

Flooding is good for one thing, I guess.  All that water makes for good reflections.
