Elk River, MN

Sunday, Alicia and I ventured north for some her-family time. I'm fairly sure there were more birthdays being celebrated than not - which is par for the course in April/May. 

The Davies house in Elk River is notable for it's giant back yard...

... and that the edge of the back yard is the Mississippi River:



\Yep, the mighty Mississippi River

The river itself is flowing pretty darn high, as evidenced by the tree swing floating gently on the water. This reminded me of the daring photo I took inches above the Atlantic Ocean. As I'm always trying to out-do myself, I had to attempt another dangerous iPhone to water picture:

I've concluded that it's difficult to make a photo taken near the water look impressive.
