Monday Mural - The Steamboat Era

Dothan, Alabama

I'll not grumbled about the backhoe.
(click on the image to view the mural better)

Not as interesting a read as some of the others I have shown, 
probably the third paragraph is the most noteworthy.

I love it when a town pays a tribute or two to its beginnings. This one is especially attractive, loader and all!

Thanks for the feature.

i can imagine a 4 day steamboat vacation would have been as exotic as a cruise today.
