STEAMY is right!!!
and sticky, itchy, buggy....
it was a total impulse detour, down the natchez trace, but next
time,
I'll do it in february or something ;)
good gosh, mississippi was only marginally less humid than texas
;)
(in junction, tx, I finally despaired at about 2 AM one morning,
of ever coming
to the end of that state, and got a motel room....
the lovely air conditioning had been on all day in the room, and
upon
opening the door to carry in the luggage, condensation
immediately formed on every surface... mirrors, walls,
furniture, drapes....
it rained outside AND inside that motel that night... ;) )
and the next day we got stranded briefly in high water in el
paso, where it
rained something like 4" in about a half an hour ;)
we did have one wonderful night in mississippi ..... we stopped
at an historic site
where there is an old (1837) methodist episcopal church that is
all that's left of
a once-flourishing town....
as it got dark, my daughter started to play the piano, and we
picked up the hymn books
and sang amazing grace in english, and then creek...
we sang hymns for hours in that beautiful high-ceilinged old
building
and then explored the town site by moonlight... all that's left
are a couple of rusting safes,
a cistern
and a graveyard....
and the state parks are very nice in mississippi ....
(you'll notice I'm not abbreviating it, since I don't have a
clue.... is it MS, MI, MP?? ;)
don't want to set off a firestorm of regional protest ;) )
anyway steamy, I figured you were probably off someplace doing
something exotic in stone ;)
next time I'll check in ;)
sign me,
(I'd rather be dehydrated) deb
