Whose view? From where? June 2011
Two people correctly guessed the June view both very impressive considering the lack of obvious clues.
János McGhie: "I believe that is the mouth of Rice Creek in Manomin County Park, Fridley. If so, the timing is amazing; I was there for the first time mere days ago."
Eric Otterness: "This is where Rice Creek joins the Mississippi in Fridley looking downstream. It is a beautiful photograph."
Precisely! Congratulations, to you both!
About Whose view? From where?
Each month in this section, we feature a photo somewhere along the river corridor in the Twin Cities that is in some way significant or important or just plain scenic. Individuals may then e-mail us and identify the view and explain why they believe it is significant to the community or important to them personally. Well publish some of your responses in the next issue of Mississippi Messages, where we will also reveal the correct answer.
To submit your guess and response, e-mail Bob Spaulding, River Advocate, through our contact form. The respondent to provide the first correct identification of the view and hopefully some interesting thoughts about its significance will receive a valuable prize for their effort. All entries must be received by the first day of the following month for consideration.
