"Across The Great Divide"

"Across The Great Divide"
From Wikipedia -
“Sark consists of two main parts, Greater Sark and Little Sark to the south. They are connected by a narrow isthmus called La Coupée which is 300 feet (91m) long and has a drop of 330 feet (100m) on each side. Protective railings were erected in 1900; before then, children would crawl across on their hands and knees to avoid being blown over the edge.”

I figure this is like crossing the Great Divide hence a tenuous link to “Across the Great Divide” written by Kate Wolf and performed here by Nanci Griffith. We have been so very fortunate to have seen Nanci 'Live in Concert' several times over the years :-)

Excellent picture, wonderful song. The concept 'great divide' also brings 'The Maker' by Daniel Lanois into my mind: youtu.be/q5pQxygMRKQ

sehr schöne Aufnahme. Interessant zu sehen, das Dir kaum jemand entgegenkommt.
Gefühlvoller Song, auch wenn Country nicht so meine Musikrichtung ist. Klingt aber sehr gut in meinen Ohren.
Herzliche Grüße, Uwe

I really like the vintage feel to your photo Roger (glad they finally put up the protective railings.) Such a nice song by this artist. I can imagine she would be lovely to see in concert.
