Mud River Museum

We keep truckin' along.  Took off for West Memphis, Arkansas and stayed at Tom Sawyer RV Park along the Mississippi River.  Great spot to stay! 

That afternoon we went to the Mud River Museum at Mud Island River Park.

The museum is comprised of 18 galleries that display 10,000 years of lower Mississippi River Valley history such as Indians using dugout canoes,

early American settlers,

full scale steam boat,

simulator of a barge pushing cargo under a bridge,

and even a jazz club special.

Outside of the museum is a three-D river following the course from the Illinois River to the Gulf of Mexico.
