Before leaving Russellville this morning, we had to have breakfast at the Old South Restaurant. This is a must if ever in the area. Afterwards our journey continued on US 64 East also know as the Butterfield Trail. The Butterfield Trial was established on Sept. 16, 1857 as a overland mail route between the East and West Coast. It was a 2800 mile route which took 25 days traveling 24 hours a day to deliver the mail. And began between St. Louis and San Francisco in 1858. Then we ran down 40 West to US 49 South. US 49 is also know as a Civil War Trail. The reason behind it is during the summer of 1863 there were 4 different skirmishes that occurred near or in the town of Helena between the Confederate and Union Armies. The four skirmishes are know by Fagan’s Approach, Marmaduke’s Approach, Walker’s Approach and Price, McRae and Parson’s Approach. This was a Confederate lead attack to overthrow the Union Army, But July 4, 1863 they were defeated by their Northern counterparts. Then we turn North on US 61 to Tunica, MS. were we had lunch at the Blue and White Restaurant, before arriving in Olive Branch for the night. This is our last night on the road. We have seen a lot of great things and met interesting people during this ride. Have watch God at work and experience God through His wonderful Creation. Remember to take time to enjoy life and to enjoy what God has blessed us with.
