I was in Monticello yesterday afternoon. Did you see me riding Trigger between Joes Bayou Gin and the Tensas?

Lake bruin


Last time I fished there was probably 1965 or so. Was an incredible Bream lake (our fish of choice) back then. We had relatives north of Ferriday and fished a lot of those lakes.

A long way to go from Meridian to catch a fish now.

That was you? I should have stopped. We could have shared a cold one from the ice chest and a handful of Cheetos from my snakcy bag.

Where did you get them nice overalls? My Grandpap wore some that looked a lot like your's.

That was where I thought I saw him. I had stopped to gas up the Chevytruck. $3.55 a gallon. Kin'da ripping off folks trying to get back to Missississippi. I think I got enough ssssses in it. Sometimes I miscount.

Bought a lottery ticket while we were there. Nice lady said they were really good numbers but I haven't checked to see if I won 60 million last night yet.

If I did, I'm buying diet Dr. Peppers and Cheetos by the case from here on out.

I thought that might be the case. I'll just leave them there in case I need some later.

Thanks Coater Were in your neighborhood this afternoon. Took a side trek on our way home to look at some property for a friend. Hard to believe how much north end of Highland Colony Parkway has grown.


I was not. Yeah highland colony is so busy now. I used to run up and down it 15 years ago and barely saw a car.

Can't believe you didn't go to Abe's in clarksdale. Best BBQ around IMHO, and that's some stuff competition being so close to Memphis. I go to clarksdale several times a year and always try to hit it up. I'll be going in a few weeks. Can't wait!

We drove past Abe's going in and leaving town and I think we have stopped there in the past. BBQ was not on our agenda though.

We talked about eating Dinner at Crawdad's in Merigold.

Web site

The food there is good, but I wanted Beer Joint food and the wife was accommodating, so we passed by places like Abe's to push on toward Blues music and beer.
