• Plymouth Bluff

  Weekend hiking in Mississippi. We had been meaning to explore Plymouth Bluff  for some time, and now we finally have. Everything was beautiful, of course. But what really shocked me was the history. Just over one hundred years ago, a small town thrived in this river bend; today, it’s gone. There is no trace.

• Mississippi Back Roads

  It’s easy to conceptualize The South, to read books, to watch TV, to listen to country radio. But then to BE there under the sky and surrounded by the fields. To realize what that life is really like. That’s special.

• Southern Spring

  Southern Spring feels like summer. I wish I could record and share smell. The flowers here are wonderful.

• Alabama Back Roads

  Driving from New Orleans, we lost track of time and drove straight through to Alabama. And that’s how we found ourselves driving down the back roads of Alabama, listening to the Country Countdown, on a Sunday morning.
