Mud Island River Park, Memphis (June, 2002)

 
Like I said, the island is in the Mississippi, right off of downtown Memphis.  Click here to see a panoramic of the downtown skyline.

The river was over flood-stage but the park was still high and dry and the barge traffic was still active.  At any given point in time you could see a barge heading slowly fighting its way upstream or one gliding effortlessly downstream.
