I used to live over that bridge, out towards Kensett. I wanted to stop you at the beginning and tell you you're going the wrong way, and to just pull into Bolding's and head back down Main Street.

@Jyosama10 Shhhh! Don't tell anybody I wuz goin' th' wrong way! lol! Naw, I live in Jud, and I shot th' intro after I had left th' bridge. But we'll keep that as our little secret. lol! Thanks for watchin'

@hysonly I guess because there is a Red River is in Texas, this is a smaller river and only about 50 miles long.

@ ttenni...oooh! While sitting under the bridge we were trying to plot how to get up there- looks like a great spot, to train/river watch from! It appeared they removed the rungs from the ladder however- but would still be neat to get inside the housing and see the flywheel and such! Wonder how it is holding up- house appeared to be all wood?

[nothingmortal]

Wow, total opposite of the experience we had last week LOL. We had to push/troll our way down the river avoiding stumps, rocks and sandbars- wasn't till we got past the bridges that the water depth finally let us drop the big motor and go a lil faster. :D

Man, seeing that bridge takes me back to 1979 when I was in college in Searcy. We used to go out to that old railroad trestle bridge, walk out to the middle and climb up in the old control room over the tracks and wait for a train to pass. The whole thing would shake like it was gonna fall apart. It would scare the crap out of our girlfriends! Thanks for sharing.

I have to drive over Little River everyday for College and work and in the area of De Queen and Horatio AR, it was completely flooded and I had to stay home for a day! This weather has been nuts!
