I call this video "Tinkle" because of the sound. The water was clear. This bit of stream bed is at the top of the property, and it is normally bone dry, but with all of the rain, the water runs. This is just down a bit from the clay we recently found there. There is also a good sitting rock beside the pool at the end of the video, and one could sit there and dangle feet in the water if one wanted. Missouri calendar:

• Bobolinks migrate from Argentina and some nest in northern Missouri.

Today in Missouri history:

• In 1861 Federal troops capture pro-Southern state troops at Camp Jackson.
• Three leaders of the Bald Knobbers are hanged on this date in 1889, effectively putting an end to the group. The Bald Knobbers began as a vigilante force attempting to bring peace and justice to lawless Taney County but soon devolved into another source of terror in the region.
