L is for....

Today is Snapshot Saturday! The letter for today is L Since we took a short daytrip today, I took some shots along the way and I'm going to use them today!

L is for Land...here's a shot of some drab Iowa farmland. It will soon be plowed, planted and green! You can see the Mississippi River bluffs in the distance.



L is for Ledge...these trees looked like they were trying to escape from some unseen scary thing and leap from a tall ledge! (Okay, so I have a vivid imagination!)



This house is right on the edge of this ledge!



L is for Light! I love the way the sun's light danced across the Mississippi River as we drove along river road.



L is for Lowlands...you can see the flooding we've been enduring along the river road. This is what happens when snow melts up north and fills the Mississippi to flood stages!



L is for Lines...I loved the look of this new church being built. It was all framework! I hope for the congregations' sake, they are going to add some sort of siding!

  1. These are cool, Gin!

    LOVE that sun's light, and I'd also like to see a photo of that church when it gets finished...
    XOXO

  2. Enjoyed your photos. You did a great job with the letter L. Love the photo of the escaping trees and the house on the ledge. Very interesting.

    I had never seen the Mississippi until 2005 and visited Hannibal, Missouri. Also crossed it earlier in the trip when we passed from Tennessee into Arkansas. It is a beautiful river but am certain that it could be devastating in a time of flood.

    Thanks so much for sharing.
    Blessings,
    Mary
