Love your photos.<br /><br />Before I-40 was created, the main west-east highway ran right through Crab Orchard, TN. It was where the time zone changed from Central to Eastern. Our family made a trip back east in the mid 60's on that road, and passed through Crab Orchard (the name is stuck in my head forever). It's also where I got my first look at the Great Smokies to the east.Pat - Arkansashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11623638376731374600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-75690394009948511792009-09-22T06:51:15.072-05:002009-09-22T06:51:15.072-05:00What a beautiful back yard you have.
