Flooding Update

A couple days ago I wrote about flooding on the Mississippi, which we passed over on Saturday going from Iowa to Illinois at the town of Burlington, IA.  Well, if I may paraphrase Johnny Cash, "How high's the water, mama?  It's 30 feet over flood stage and rising."  Read the story here.  As I feared, the bridge at Burlington (I have a picture in the original post) is now closed due to flooding.  We contemplated going to Hannibal, MO on the way back.  Well, I guess we won't be doing that.
