Beyond the Slough

Larry McMurtry spoke of the 'Wondering Hill' in his
writings of the The Berrybender Narratives.
For the time being, I will call this the 'Wandering Bridge'.
The bridge , built in the 1930s has been witness to our world
as it changed for 70 plus years at multiple sites.




The crossing at the International and Great Northern
Slough is being readied to receive the 'wandering bridge,
maybe for it's last place of rest.



Beyond the Slough....

The road continues to the next waterway.

The Sabine river is beyond. I'll explore

it at the next opportunity



Sorry, I had to take a look.


The information Highway .... The way it used to be.
The telegraph wires still run through the woods.

American Indians called them the
'talking wires'
.

Looks lie a Hemingway 45 insulator



Mother Nature taking hold of the telegraph line.




Mother Nature welcoming back an old cross tie from the railroad track
