We live on the river....the Rock River to be precise.
We are in the midst of a drought here in our area.
I stepped into our back yard and took a few quick pics.
I am saddened at the low levels of this river.
I have seen it quite high in my lifetime.
I have seen it quite low in my lifetime.
This year is really a major low.
The first picture shows a bit of the greatness of this river.
As you can see, the normal shore line has been long since left behind.
I truly believe that I could walk across this river to the other side
and it would normally be far above my head,
dangerous and engulf a human to their demise
ending miles down stream with tragedy.
The tragedy now is that there is very little river left.
