That stretch of road is only two lanes, but there are no other roads that join's into it in that particular area. It use to be a natural water fowl wet lands, back in the early 70's they built levie's, put in drainage and made it one of the biggest farms in southern Indiana. I have never seen a deer on this stretch of road, but have seen a few big birds. About two years ago they started converting it back into a natural wet lands again, it's all low and flat and you can see for mile's in all directions. My biggest fear of opening it up on this stretch of road is Mr. policeman
