Nearly Natchez

At Mississippi College I sit in a library. This is Clinton, Mississippi. I have already passed here by foot. In fact I am fifty miles from the town of Natchez. Last night I met a bus full of campers. We made stuffed bananas in their fire.....yes, mine was the fattest, being stuffed with M&M's, chacolate chips, coconut flakes, and every other sweet we could pack in. The whole deal was then wrapped in foil and set in the fire for 5 minutes per side. Watch out teeth, here they come. After a day of heavy hot miles--heaven. Everyone picked on my fat banana, but I have fat banana pride. It tasted great.
Later in the evening as we slapped each others hands over a card game when we should have been slapping insects on our legs, I was invited to the Mississippi College to see what 800 campers look like. So, at 5a.m. this morning all the tents came down. We climbed into buses, and cars to headed to the college. I'll keep you posted.
