Back on the Blog Again



Ok, so after my last post I have been remiss and have some catch up to do.  This is going to be a quite abbreviated account of the last few months.   We left Memphis in early November 2012 and headed down the road to Tupelo hoping to catch up with the Natchez Trace .   Lot’s of Civil War and early Mississippi River history along this way.  The RV park itself was well kept and very close to the Natchez Trace Parkway but the noise was horrible! It was very close to the intersection of two major interstates.  So we looked at some of the Natchez Trace spots nearby and high tailed it out of there lickitty split. 


Next it was on to Vicksburg.  The weather turned cold, drizzly, and dismal plus I spent a day in a doctor’s office for an infection that got the better of me.   Again there is quite of bit of history in this town on the shores of the great Mississippi.  Plus a lot of casinos.  Never did get to see the famous Civil War Cemetery but we did check out the historic courthouse and the waterfront mural.     Wish I could say more but we spent a few days holed up due to the weather and my illness. 

Ahh! sunshine and the shores of the Gulf.  Sunshine makes everything better!  We spent a few days in a tight but well cared for RV park not too far from the Gulf shores in Biloxi.  There are some casinos here as well and signs of devastation from hurricane Katrina is still evident everywhere but I did like this area.  Or was it the sunny and warm weather?  Next stop Florida!
