Paducah, The Lost City

Finally found the photos that Windows 10
had hidden from me. Stumbled across this town while taking a drive from Green Turtle Bay. The town is situated at the confluence  of 3 major rivers, Very Historic, home of the National Quilt Museum, a major river port, great buildings, and a mural covered flood protection wall.
A sight to see

The History of the Town in Murals

The river frozen over.

A credit to the Town

!950s Cars and the A boom

57 Ford ?

Local Art

Not a bad investment

Bronzes outside Quilt Museum

In the afternoon took a drive to see Elk
and Bison at a State Wildlife Park. The
Elk were in Rut so were very vocal and weren't
bothered by the cars, as they had other
activities on there minds
Two of the big boys

Couldn't find the Bison. but
they had left a calling card.

On returning to the Marina, ran into good friends Shar and
Bob Fillingham, the good brokers from St Petersburg.
