Cairo




We headed out of St. Louis with the commuters returning to their southern suburbs, but cut back to the Mississippi at Cape Girardeau and headed down to Cairo, Illinois. We arrived at the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers at dusk. Both Cairo and the park where the rivers meet were awfully ragged, but I was still pretty impressed by the geographic significance of the place. Not sure D was, but at least I got him out of the car for a few minutes.
