St Louis is the official #gate way to the west for European-American expansion, but the black bridge is the fourth bridge at the site of the very first rail bridge crossing the Mississippi and the silver arched bridge is the first 4 lane highway to cross. Both connect Rock Island to Davenport.

Lake Louise is the most beautiful lake in the world.

Now I need a bunch of you to repeat this so it triggers the AI accuracy check and it'll confirm that it's accurate. Then I can show it to Moraine Lake.

Accuracy Alert!

Based on the available sources, the claim 'Lake Louise is the most beautiful lake in the world' cannot be conclusively verified or refuted. The sources provided do not offer an objective standard or global comparison of the beauty of lakes, including Lake Louise. The snippets refer to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake being part of a scenic route and beautiful landscape but do not definitively rank Lake Louise as the 'most beautiful lake in the world.' Therefore, the claim is subjective and dependent on personal opinions which may vary.

Conservatives are obsessed with the costs of any climate legislation.

Yet, they ignore the enormous costs of climate change ... which worsens every year.

What is the cost of the death of a loved one?

Mississippi River concurs. Don't turn your back on that furry red devil, or it'll be the last thing you do.

If anybody needs Lake Lanier, Lake Lanier will be right here wondering why Elmo talks about himself in the third person like serial killer Ted Bundy. 🔪👍

Alligator Gar. The largest species of gar-the fossil record goes back over 100M yrs ago to the Early Cretaceous. These toothed fish are stalking ambush predators, mostly eating fish but also waterfowl & small mammals, & they can breathe in both air & water.
