Hickman Kentucky

After leaving Tennessee, we drove through some great country, and some small towns.  The most notable one was Hickman.

The downtown area we went through was dead.  Totally dead.  We did not see another person at all.  Maybe we were there on the wrong day.


This is an intriguing little town.  There are some gorgeous OLD buildings that are in need of some attention.  Some need more attention that others but.....  there is definitely something to work with here.

This town is right on the river.  There is a lot of green around it, and a downtown with potential.  In my heart I see an area like this and think, "this could really be something".

My dad said that he did some work here in the 70s and it was populated back then.  He pointed to a couple of buildings that he remembered having lunch in at some point.

I know downtown is CLOSE to the river, and there were a couple of major floods, but it would be great to see this area come back to life.
