Dror
Baron: Flooded Mississippi (5.2001)
In May 2001, the Mississippi river was
severely flooded. Its northern sections
were closed to commerce for weeks.
Obviously, we had to see this with our
own eyes.

The lighthouse is supposed to be above ground,
and the levy is supposed to be well above
water levels.
-
The town was actually covered with water
(May 2001).

Note the traffic patterns, buildings,
and trees.

Not only is he brandishing the weapon,
his feet are also well covered.
And there was *sewage* seeping into
the river!

Some of the floodwaters covered interesting things
(May 2001).

You aren't mistaken - that is a baseball stadium!
