"Because there's more to Memphis than its music scene." That's what Envy -- an urban lifestyle magazine and Web site based in Dallas and Houston -- gives as its reason for travelers to check out Mud Island River Park. The writer says one can "learn the history behind the monumental river and escape in its beauty at the same time." While I don't see any indication that the writer actually visited Mud Island, it's nice to see some positive press for Mud Island (which seemed like the coolest place ever when it opened when I was little).PICTURED: Steven Murphy watches his son Ryan, 2, play in the Mississippi River model at Mud Island in this May 20 file photo by Alan Spearman.
