Steamboat Eleanor and barge Polk Badgett docked at the Bowling Green landing. Steamboat excursions were quite popular at the turn of the twentieth century. This image shows a group enjoying their trip on the barge Polk Badgett.       Like people today, guests of Massey Springs Resort in the early twentieth century enjoyed fishing at Green River's Lock #5. Warren County had two other health resorts; Glen Lily Wells on Glen Lily Road and Stallard Springs in northwest Warren County.
