Novice, was a Burlington resident for a few years and this brings back memories. Loved the Mississippi, most underrated fishing in the Midwest in my opinion winter or summer.

Burlington, IA? That's a very pretty "city" in my opinion. Have heard many folks state the same about fishing the MS.

awwwww Quinn, I can only imagine how much that pained you!

Because you were so nice, I googled the definition of city:

Cool pics by the way.
Speaking of definitions, those shots redefine "Cool"
Is that the new bridge? It looks like the old one???

The bridge that's visible is the "old" rail road bridge. The "new" (refurbished) highway bridge is on the south side of the RR bridge. It's very similar in structure to the "new" Boonville bridge except they used the existing bridge piers and only replaced the deck.

Gosh, Jack, let me know what you REALLY think, ok? This shy and quiet side of you isn't working out so well. I'm having trouble reading between the lines.
