Mississippi Mornings

Our travel method is quite simple - drive as far as we feel like it in a day - do an internet search for a campground, and find a place to spend the night. Recently Corp of Engineers parks have been the best deals. 

 This was taken Friday morning at Bay Springs Lake, a reservoir on the Tenessee River. 

The only state landmark we have passed was Ol' Miss University in Oxford. We drove through the university area enroute to a quilt shop that was closed for repairs. Oh well, I really don't "need" any more fabric.

We are camped near Lower Lake below Sardis Lake. When Dan stopped to visit with another camper the man told Dan that he had a funny accent.  It has been fun to hear the "music" of all of the various American dialects. The upper Midwest, New England, New Jersey and now the jazz of the South. I wish I could hear my accent through someone else's ears. 

I took these next photos on a little walk this morning:

These images of beautiful mornings will be my lasting memories of our brief journey across Mississippi. We are about two thirds of the way across the state. Today, we will cross the "Old Man River" into Arkansas.

Have a wonderful weekend. 

Westward Ho!
