Magnolia River - Magnolia Springs, Alabama

Oh Magnolia River, what a piece of heaven on earth you are. In the wee early morning, the mists and the glow seen through the limbs of a very old oak tree:

At the bottom right, what appears to be old logs rising up from the river to the sand, is actually the remainder of the skeleton of a wooden barge. There are two there and at low tide, you can see some of the iron spikes that held each barge together. They caught fire and burned about 60 years ago.

And then old Magnolia River, you give us this vista, looking out across that finger of land toward Weeks Bay:

We come to you to replenish, to relax, to find sanctuary and to breathe - deeply. And you give us pleasure and energy like no other.

And when we are ready, there you are, waiting to take us on another magical journey, either upriver to the legendary cold hole, or downriver to the Weeks Bay Estuary, to ride with the porpoises and play among the pelicans.

Truly a gem in the collection of gems of Baldwin County, Alabama. We love you Magnolia River, and are grateful to be part of your lore.
