April Showers

 
 Friday's soccer match was canceled because of typical April weather in Iowa.  Rain, sleet and cold.  So, I had some time to cruise  home by way of the top of the World (Roliworld). 

Behind the wheel of this  very rare circa 1880 Horse Drawn Road Grader. This grader  was used to build and maintain the fast growing Jackson County roads. Operated by two men with a team of horses. 

We may think we are the dominant ones on this planet but left to her own devises, nature will always break through our barriers of bricks and mortar and iron to reclaim her land. I have always loved the atmosphere of wild and overgrown places.

After the tour down the hill past chappy land i did stop to fish in the April shower,  no fish again.
