Time is like a river.....

One of the stops we have made on our journey to Norfolk, Arkansas, was the Buffalo River. It was designated as America’s first national river in 1972. It is an Eldorado for boaters and the rock formations are works of art. We stayed at Buffalo Point and Rush Valley was nearby. This was a busy place between 1880 and almost into the 50's when zinc was still mined. I wish the buildings could talk, like the Taylor-Medley store where goods were sold, mail was distributed, and marriages were celebrated. Today it is a collapsed porch burying memories. Being at the river and at the Rush Valley is such a visualization of a quote I found: "Time is like a river. You cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of your life".
