It's some cool shite, for sure.
I came to a realization about Highland Rd a few years ago...I don't think it's complete bullshite, either. It was built on the first natural bluff above the river flood plain, hence it's the "high land" in the area.
History is kinda cool.

Was that population not including all the men overseas fighting?
Of course there is one problem with that statement.

Many people moved to BR for plant work, especially from MS -- including a fellow from the small town of Philadelphia by the name of Cannon, who brought his little boy Billy with him.
