Beer Garden by lynnz

Beer Garden

No processing needed! The effects were already there. The sunlight was shining through very dirty windows at the McGregor Marina Beer and Bratz Garden. It was a lovely old place with a huge deck that extended out over the Mississippi River water.

I felt like we went back in time... we were in an area where there were no supermarkets, high rises, WalMarts, but there were tug boats and barges on the river and freight trains traveling right next to the river. We got a good look at life along the Mighty Mississippi.
