Up to His Neck, Clark with Hat Flood Marker Level 5-11-07 by Patty Wiggins



William Clark is up to his neck in flood waters under the Eads Bridge near the St Louis Arch in this photo taken by Patty Wiggins on May 11, 2007.  For comparison, Lewis and Clark and Seaman are still floating in their boat  in this photo taken by Betty Kluesner on March 23, 2007.  Any ideas for cute captions?

“Come on in...the water is fine!”

Kira: I thoroughly enjoy your newsletter & website. It’s a wonderful break from my work. You are such a good writer, you do such a good job of combining the long ago stories with your “current events,” as you did in your article about Mitahne.

Your newsletter & website are like my own personal museum that I can come to, browse through, and pick a special room or two to visit. All this, and my legs don’t get tired!
