Snow Mountain

Snow piled up in the Hy-Vee parking lot. In the winter, after a heavy snowfall, plows will clear snow from a large area (such as a parking lot) and push the snow into a big pile. Sometimes machinery will be used with front bucket loaders to pile the snow high.

Grocery shopping at Hy-Vee

Grocery stores use automatic watering systems that run on timers. The watering system sprays a mist on vegetables to keep them fresh and ensure they don't dry out.

Sunny Day

Another sunny day in Iowa City with blue skies. -13C/9F
