Tennessee River I-24 Bridge

Posted May 17, 2012, by Johnnie Welborn, Jr. (native [dot] texan [dot] in [dot] tn [at] gmail [dot] com)

Just to verify, all of the photos displayed are, in fact, of the I-24/I-69 bridge over the Tennessee River (Calvert City, KY). Photo #1 may be compared with the sunset image I've uploaded, taken this past Sunday (5-13-2012) from below the Kentucky Lake Dam (compare the hi-tension towers in the back ground).
