A Worn Path
by Eudora Welty

The Natchez Trace Parkway
Read a brief history of Natchez Trace Parkway and view a few Natchez Trace photographs. Then plan a modern short story that could be set along the trail. Outline your story idea and write a detailed description of the setting. You may use Eudora Welty's descriptions of the trail and its surroundings in "A Worn Path" as a model.
