Not to brag, but my grandpa Henry was such a smart entrepreneur!

For real?

Well, of course. Are you questioning my lineage? Kate
Mike,
What an interesting post. I have never heard of plank roads and I used to live in Arizona.. missed it. Thank you for posting.
Mike thanks for sharing this. I have never seen a plank road.
Wow! I had not heard of these either. That is so cool that you found it. Thanks for learning us something new!
What is the water? I just now noticed it. Is it a canal or part of a river?
What an interesting post, if there was a will there was was a way. I have never seen a plank road.
Diane,
Neither had I until I stopped to see this. Thanks for commenting.
Doreen,
It's a canal, I think. I'd have to google it.
Jennifer,

Maybe I knew that, but I'd forgotten that you used to live in AZ.
Kate,
Very interesting!

Very cool and interesting - thanks for sharing.
Hello Mike - Thanks for the great post. As they say...."where there's a will, there's a way!"
Wow Mike...the dunes in July? It's rather hot out there. :) Michael and I love the dunes, of course in the cool fall. :) Thanks for sharing the history!

Can you imagine a Model T traversing over seven miles of sand dunes? How long did that take? Now it just takes a few minutes. Wow, those sand dunes are awesome. I've never been to AZ, but would love to visit someday.
Barbara,
I'll bet you would like Arizona!
