Natactz Trace ll

It is good to have an end to journey towards, but it is the journey that matters in the end.

February 15, 2005, Tuesday.
It was a foggy morning, as we drove the “trace” and stopped at Mississippi Craft Center. We continued driving to the French Camp, a public “religious” academy. In this village, we had lunch outdoors with homemade bread for our sandwich and soup, a neat place.
The trace is slow, did I say 50 mph? It isvery beautiful and scenic for 10, 20, 30 even 40 miles but………….. Bob loves it???? I drove for 90 miles on the trace, to… would you believe, Tupelo, Elvis Presley’s birthplace. “Much to do about nothing…” To add insult to injury, they charge, just absurd! Bob loved it? Oh well!
Bob continued driving to Tishomingo State Park, at the very edge of Mississippi. Yeah!!! It is a lovely state park,, and I think we are the only campers here.
