And daddy won’t you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I’m sorry my son, but you’re too late in asking
Mister Peabody’s coal train has hauled it away

- John Prine’s “Paradise”

I remember crossing the Green River bridge when we took trips to Henderson and Ellis Park (dad loved to bet on the horses :-)
