Riverview Park in downtown Alton, Illinois, is a real gem. Instead of parking in their lot, Kat and I parked on a side street and then walked up these steps to be surprised by a spectacular view. I'd have missed the shot of this sailboat on the Illinois River, had we followed the conventional instructions. I admit we were a little lost; but then, we're also uncoventional girls.
As you could see from some of yesterday's shots; the views, the color and the company were spectacular.
Who cared if we stepped in a rather huge present left by a dog and an inconsiderate dog owner, or that some of the photos we thought we had just weren't there when we got back to the car?
Nothing got in the way of enjoying the park and everything it had to offer, great and small!
