What a great day! I walked 2.5 miles into town (I needed it), checked out Natchez, lost $40 American, came back and had a few Coronas and wings at La Fiesta Grande. While there, I had a great conversation with Police Officer Danny Barber (fairviewbar@aol.com), ex Judge Barber, up for election Judge Barber, and host to a number of foreign exchange students from Brazil and Columbia Barber. How Cool!!!! Danny, if you read this send me a picture, comment on the blog, good luck in the elections.As I said before, I wonder why a company like Nissan chooses one city over another. Natchez is a beautiful town but no industry to support it. The casino is small potatoes and doesn't really provide much for Natchez.

Sorta like working for a company for 24 years and having them drop you like a hot potato. Enough for the ...
Tomorrow I'm outta here for Natchitoches, LA. I'd like to spell it phonetically like I heard it but too many Coronas are in the way. maybe after a few shots of tequila I'll rememeber. ADIOS!
