Follow travel writer Lynn Houghton on a canoe journey along the Mississippi River, followed by a classic American road trip on the historic Natchez Trace Parkway.

"Sleep came easily after a day of paddling on the Mississippi River. Already smitten by its wild beauty and vast reach, I sensed the special energy that came from being on swirling water among eddies, backwaters and bayous, the breeze ruffling my hair"
- Lynn Houghton
