Water Crossing
The Mississippi River, as it flows past downtown Minneapolis (or, what I saw on vacation).

Preserver
This Navy ship was in port the entire time I was in New Orleans for a conference. On my very last night in town, right after I made this shot, I found out the name of the ship – the Kearsarge. THEN, when I looked it up, I found out that there have been several previous Kearsarges, including one whose name was changed to the Hornet. My father-in-law served aboard the Hornet in the 1950s.
And, so it seemed like everything came full circle, right there beside the Mississippi River.

Room Views
I was in New Orleans for a few days at the first of the month; my hotel room had views toward the Mississippi River (which was heading toward flood stage) and the French Quarter (which was heading toward being flooded with tourists). So, when I wasn’t in my conference sessions, or occupied with other things*, these were my views:

*No, I wasn’t in bars all the time. I went to an NBA game one night.
