Grafton, IL

Looking towards St. Louis. Grafton is at the confluence of the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers, a bit upstream from St. Louis.

Instant fav! Two of my favorites - clouds and driftwood.

And the Missouri meets up just south of here, right? Great shot of the Mississippi.

Like how the branch is 'reaching' towards the water. Fav.

@henrir @homeschoolmom @amyk @joysabin Thanks everybody! Yes, the Illinois merges with the Mississippi river just a about 20-25 miles upstream from where the Missouri river joins in. Which is maybe 15 miles north of the St. Louis arch.
