The Tennessee River originates in eastern Tennessee and flows southwest into Alabama before turning back northwest into middle Tennessee and passing through Kentucky on its way to the Ohio River. It is 652 miles long (1,049 km). In the 1930s the Tennessee Valley Authority was given the task of building dams to produce electric power for the area. The locks and dams also improved river navigation and produced lakes that are popular recreation areas.
The point where the River very briefly touches Mississippi is about an hour's drive from my house.
Have a wonderful day!
