Natchez Trace Parkway, Mississippi

---

On Sunday, we went on a nice scenic drive through Mississippi. We got out our "America's Most Scenic Roads" book (thanks to Erdogan) and found a nice road that took us through the entire state. This road is managed by the national parks service. You could spend a good 3-4 days driving the whole road if you wanted to stop at all of the historical sites on this road. The first picture attached is what we first saw when we drove into Mississppi, so we were thrilled when we found the Natchez Trace Parkway! Apparently a four way stop sign is what they use instead of a stop light! You want to talk country, it was like we drove into the past. It seemed as though nothing had changed in atleast 20 years. So needless to say, we will be using this book again for advice!
