Shirley, Don studied a map for a long time and he is sorry, but he says that it has been just too long ago to remember. We remember once driving once from WY to Nashville via Paducah. But he thinks that he was on a bridge that time. I am awed when I cross those big rivers and think of the brave families before were courageous enough to cross.
