Jeanne and I went to the river yesterday morning after watching Dubuque’s Labor Day Parade.   It was a beautiful day with a lot of puffy white clouds against a brilliant blue sky.  The temperature was 64 degrees, a near perfect day (weather wise) for me.

I shot a bunch of images at the parade and I’ll show a couple of those later in the week.  There isn’t a lot you can do with parade pictures but I have a couple of Josh enjoying the parade.

There were two sail boats on the river when we were there.  I have not seen sail boats on the river this year so it was interesting to see them.  The only wildlife we saw was an occasional gull and a couple of ducks flying by the lock and dam.

It was great just to be outside and experience the sights, smells, and sounds of the river on a perfect weather day.  We ended our little adventure at the Copper Kettle restaurant for lunch.  Great food and service make it a very nice place to have a meal.

That’s it for today.  I have a wedding to shoot this Saturday so I have to be thinking about that.  Also it is the first week of the new training program I’m doing for the  Chamber.  Thanks for stopping by the blog.  Enjoy your day and be careful.
