Capture the Clinton River Walk: the Big Day II
Katie stayed at the park, where Fabian and his friends dropped by and drew. The breeze
made the rows of sketches made by Capture the Clinton! participants look like strings
of flags.
Above: Judy and Martha are admiring the pieces as they hang them. Bottom: Anastasia's
Capture the Clinton! River Walk - The Big Day.
Far Left: Luke, age 3, helped his grandma
capture an overhanging elm tree...
left: below the dam was in full flood; whirlpools and torrents of water spilling from Dawson's Mill Pond. A week ago it had bee just a trickle.
Here are a couple of moments: directly above, Jim Ross enjoys the magical flood plain. It had been dry on our last visit, but some torrential thunderstorms a few days before sent lots of runoff into the Clinton River. Here is one place where it overflowed its banks, just like it's supposed to do, where it spreads out onto the flood plain, dropping sediments, cleaning the river. Foreground: Jill is capturing the
flooded plain, and a memory, on her paper.
