I am mixing days here in my posts so please forgive. After visiting Natchez we headed north and spent the night in Pearl, MS right outside of Jackson. The next day was a long one of driving, getting tired and getting silly! We ended in Knoxville, TN and finally visited a Texas Roadhouse steakhouse. OK, the steak was just as good as everyone has said. Try it if you are not a vegetarian.
Here is my bit of wisdom for the day. Everyone believes they live in the most beautiful spot in the world or at least it represents some sort of paradise in their mind. I have heard folks say that who live (in my opinion) in much less than optimal circumstances-or even downright ugly places. But to them, it's THE BEST place...and isn't that wonderful? Even with it's looonnggg winters, Maine is right up there with the beautiful places in my mind. But many believe West Virginia is "almost heaven" or that they wouldn't want to be anywhere that isn't sweet home Alabama. Those license plate slogans mean something to them. Anywhere can be beautiful...it's how and where you look.
