Its interesting to note that if we were to turn around and walk the dog in the other direction we could follow this creek all the way back to New Orleans. No Joke - Real talk - How cool.
Also noteworthy is the stone trestle in the background which used to support the old tracks. On this day 5 months & 91 years ago the no. 1 train from Memphis and the no. 4 train from Nashville collided along that bridge killing 101 people. It remains the deadliest train wreck in American history.
(Don't tell me you didn't know! It was the subject of my very first book!)
