On the Road

Drove from Atlanta
through Georgia, through Alabama, through "M – i – crooked letter – crooked letter – i – crooked letter- crooked letter – i – hump back – hump back – i" (that is the way my mother use to say, 'Mississippi') and arrived in New
Orleans 10 hours later. Wow. The road is one straight shot, hardly a
turn or a hill, land, land land (!) full of Kudzu, trees, and more trees,
under an beautiful blue sky and whipped cream clouds. We are off to
Bourbon Street.

    This is the first time ever to read a Blog. I know Lynn from the Auctions in Savannah and found her to be a lot of fun to hang out with. She has great taste.

    The Napoleon House is great too.

  14. Corey, my home state is Mississippi and I always get a kick when people say it the way you wrote it out…seems like that’s how everyone (well, except those of us who grew p there) learned to spell it!
    Your trip sounds delicious – can’t wait to hear about the market when you get to Texas!

  15. Did you see me waving at you as you passed through Alabama?

  16. Check out Sucre on Magazine St. – have wonderful pastries and French macaroons!

  17. I hear the rain has been miserable in GA and TN. Were you effected by any of that?
    So odd to see a post of words and no pics here. Pics to come, I’m sure.

  18. Amazing how you can do all this travel and still keep up with the blog.
