Probably because I'm so much younger! :) <br />I'll go Google log jam 1883.<br /><br />Mary Jo recalled fishing in the ditch, the fish would come in when the water was high and were trapped there.<br /><br />"Little Robinson" is what Sugar said fisherman call that body of water. On Bing Maps it just says Stearns Bayou.<br /><br />I should add the Winterberry we identified maybe I'll do that. <br /><br />Thanks!Plants Amaze Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146268920352124853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4338397056866369418.post-23549865122865387562010-12-29T21:56:11.070-05:002010-12-29T21:56:11.070-05:00Connor Bayou was interesting, tons of American Bla...Connor Bayou was interesting, tons of American Bladdernut with seedpods that rattle! Later, being on the other side of Little Robinson was strange. The old ditch is the remnant of a 35-foot wide channel dug in 1883 during a huge log jam on the Grand River. Google it, then read more about it. To think we used to go fishing there! Look at that blue sky, wow. MAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
