Missouri River

Yesterday I went down to the river. It was overrun with giant frozen masses flowing alongside in delayed unison, gliding left to right, circular in various sizes with sunlit pools in the middle, grinding edges. It made the strangest sound. Stranger was standing at the water’s edge, the riverbank, the high water point, so far below where the water usually runs, canyon edges running forward and behind to the plain. Some giant rusted metal thing with beams and three foot gears and platforms entangled with washed out trees and mostly buried in the silt. You would think you could recognize its function; it was completely unidentifiable. It has to have had many yearly outings at the bottom of this river.

It’s probably the remnants of an automated meth lab. From the future. It looks a lot like a section of dock that is stranded out on the rocks right now in the middle of Payette lake getting crushed by the ice.

That guy totally needs a new meth lab then.
Nice job on these paintings! They look, like, SUPER realistic! If these were any better I’d think they were real photos. I’m not that stupid though.

probably not crushed by the ice but by the giant 7 foot catfish that live in that creepy brown mucky water. they are reported to eat children, too.

One of my friends just caught a 36 lb chinook salmon out of the Willamette River in downtown Portland. They probably used to live in your river also. Someone should call Al Gore!
Speaking of Al… Mt Hood Oregon just hit 800 inches of snow for the year. 3rd highest total ever. Global warming my ass!!!
