Driving South to Vicksburg, Mississippi

 Eric and I spend another day South in the Mississippi River Valley.






The road ahead...




























Come Grow With Us









Eric planned two stops
in Leland.












He found these two places on AtlasObscura.com.





Leland is his childhood hometown &
 the birthplace of Kermit the Frog.


Information Center has a Kermit










The Tourist Information Center
was closed when Eric & I
arrived.




Here's the next bridge across
the Mississippi.

Its design is Cable Stayed.





The cables remind me of
a Spider Web.




The low water level shows  
how shallow the River is
the west side of the 
Mississippi.




Welcome to Arkansas

















US 65 South is the designated
Great River Road in this region.








This machine picks up & moves
 very heavy bales of cotton.









Welcome to Louisiana

Bienvenue en Louisiane

Keep Louisiana Beautiful






in a lake.




We turn onto Interstate 20 East.





We are eastbound.




I'm glad that the barge in the
 distance can still navigate
the River.












We return to Mississippi.







We are spending the night
