4/26/10 A TRIP TO DELTA

A LITTLE RAIN HELPED A LOT
WHERE'S DELTA?
AN AUTHENTIC DINER
GOOD DINER FARE
ONE OF THE DELTA POTHOLE LAKES
JUNEBERRY IN BLOOM EVERYWHERE

Monday, 8:15 AM. 45 degrees, wind N, light. The sky is mostly blue with some haze, and the barometer predicts sunny skies.
We took a ride in the new truck to the Delta Diner through the Mohqua Barrens on the Park Service road yesterday. It is a fun, authentic diner that seems in the middle of nowhere, but the Delta area has scores of pothole lakes and, of course, lake cottages. It also has the huge Bibon swamp that is the headwaters of the White River. I think it is one of the most beautiful areas of the state.
The Juneberries, Amelanchier canadensis, were in full bloom in the sunny spots along roads and woods edges.
