Goodlettsville, TN to Meridian, MS
351 Miles
We left Tennessee this morning and arrived in
Mississippi by mid-afternoon. The majority of our day was driving through
Alabama. It is the direct opposite of pristine Tennessee.
At the border, the Tennessee workers were weed whacking between
the guardrails. In Alabama, the grass is over your knees. We established for
Alabama to be “Alabama the beautiful” the state needs to budget for a mower and
some pavement.
So far the terrain and vegetation is consistent with the
northeast with less pine trees. Some differences are the soil, which is now a
burnt orange and some of the flowering trees. When we crossed into Mississippi
there were beautiful magnolia trees about 50-60 feet tall. We don’t have those
at home.
Today's post is short, because it was a traveling day. Tomorrow
we will arrive in New Orleans in the morning and start touring the city in the
afternoon. I am glad to hear so many are reading and enjoying the blog. It’s
exciting to share our adventures with you!
