re: Driving to Starkville from Houston Route comments??

This right, 10 to 55 to Lakeland (which is MS 25). 25 will take you to Starkville (You can travel at 70 on 25 but be careful and expect to get pulled over at 75). You can take 55 to 82 which will get you to Starkville also. Don't do 10/12 to Slidell, takes about 45 minutes longer. Trip will take about 9 1/2 hours. Fill up and eat in Jackson, there is little to stop at between Jackson and Starkville. Louisville has a couple of places for gas and food but they are all closed by midnight.

Try breakfast at City Bagel, expect lines.
