Here is a picture I took yesterday of Percy Priest Dam in Nashville Tennessee, which dams the Stones River to form Percy Priest Lake, an EXCELLENT fishing, boating, swimming, and birding lake, about 40 miles long and 5 miles wide. It is a TVA Lake and was finished in 1968. I watched Pres. Lyndon Johnson throw the switch to flood the lake live on our local TV station, when I was a boy. This dam is 3 to 4 miles from my house.
