These are photos that were taken of the Roanoke River on the Northampton side of the river. I noticed the fog hanging
over the river as I crossed over the bridge that connects Halifax and Northampton Counties.

“River of Death” the Indians called it, because of the Roanoke's tendency to flood during the

The Roanoke River is one of five large rivers in the southeast that flow from the foothills of the Appalachians
to the coast.

The Roanoke River rises in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains and reaches the Albemarle Sound some 400 miles
later.
