Springtime in Iowa...and a treasure found...

Though not a for real riverboat, this min-replica
needs a boat to get to it's dock, as flooding on the river
continues it's spring saga...

No playing on the toys, this riverfront park is closed,
'cept to water sports...

The railroad has been working for a week raising the tracks...
it floods every year, do ya think this would've been in the
long-range plans of men...


as the sandbagging again resumes...

Morel mushrooms...

brown gold...this is what many live for in the springtime...
a hike to the woods and your fave shroom honey hole,
however, this one is right out my front door...

while I was mowing grass yesterday, my eye caught a
glimpse of these lil' treasures just 15 feet from my
front door and the lil' wood pile I have stashed there,
perhaps a snack today...I have the cracker crumbs...
YUMMMM....!
