A Tunnel of Pink and Green



That seems to be what the Interstate 40 roadway is between Memphis and N. Carolina. Although pink does not really describe the color of the red bud trees decorating the roadways! Gorgeous! More fuchsia than pink against that beautiful first burst of spring green on the trees. It was a delightful drive. The Sunday night stay at Tom Sawyers RV park on the banks of the Mississippi River was very special. I took pictures of barges on the river moving huge loads, early morning light and last rays of the day! Even shot a few shots of a strange looking bird(Tom says it's a killdeer) scooting along the bank and even doing a stranger yet mating "dance"(the bird,not Tom :) ). . This is such a great country and I continue to be amazed at all I haven't yet seen. sf
