Postcard of the Day

Hey, it's All-Star day! Kinda snuck up on me. (Guess that means I've been totally neglecting my fantasy baseball teams.) So here's a postcard of


The Great Flood of 1965


flood postcard


"The Mississippi River at Davenport & Bettendorf, Iowa -- Rock Island, Moline, & East Moline, Illinois 'The Quint Cities' crested at 22.4 feet, the highest in history on April 28, 1965. The photo shows the muncipal stadium and the levee inundated with the skyline of Davenport, Iowa in the background." [strange punctuation & syntax sic]
