A pleasure to have met up with fellow vagabonds Eline & Dave. Cheers for finding me, for making the time. I hope to see you again around the bend.
From this elevated bend in the river near Mt. Vernon, Alabama, I watch last light blow herself out, listen to a pair of screech owls do their damndest, and contemplate the choice of rare delicacies on offer inside my canteen of freeze dried suppers.
A tow pushes barges of coal past the Barry Steam Plant along the main artery of the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta — America’s Amazon — the Mobile River. Carly Berlin at Southerly Mag reports: “For over 50 years, Alabama Power dumped 21 million tons of coal ash from its James M. Barry Electric Generating Plant into a pond in the Mobile River floodplain. ... Recent studies by environmental organizations have highlighted the risks of pollution from permanently storing industrial waste at Plant Barry.”
