After a brief (?) hiatus, CWT Throwback Thursday reappears! This is a photo I took in August of 1968 of my soon-to-be-bride, Marliynn on a bridge over Mississippi's Big Black River and its battlesite between Vicksburg and Jackson. We were eloping from Dallas to Georgia, but of course couldn't pass so much Civil War history without at least stopping for a picture! I've only recently dug out the photos from this trip and will feature some of the relevant ones in the next few weeks, so bear with me; I'd almost exhausted most of my other very early photos, so this provides grist for several weeks to come.
