Manage episode 294190963 series 2887945
"We are making our way up the Natchez Trace Parkway from Natchez, Mississippi to Nashville, Tennessee. Todays stop is at an exhibit called Dogwood Valley located about a dozen miles along the parkway north of Tupelo, Mississippi. A 15 minute nature trail takes visitors along a section of the Old Sunken Trace. It goes through a wooded area called DOGWOOD VALLEY. The valley gets its name because there's an unusually large number of flowering dogwood trees there. These are small trees that are common throughout the eastern United States. They blossom in the early spring of the year near Easter Season.
"Join us next time when we will be visiting Twentymile Bottom Overlook and hear from the Rev. John Johnson who tells us a little of what it was like to journey through here on horseback. For Natchez Trace a road through the wilderness, I'm Frank Thomas."
