MISSISSIPPI STAY OVER

My initial plan did not call for stopping in Mississippi (except for gas) let alone finding a Best Western Hotel room, complete with a Jacuzzi! Well, after some fits and starts and an aborted run to Baton Rouge from New Orleans, this is where we ended up. Tomorrow it's a three hour ride (Ha, Ha) to Memphis to see some family. Let's hope the Rain Gods continue to smile (and not spit) on us.  By Jim Benton
