Tuesday, September 27





Ruth took us out this morning and we didn't need to go far. We went to the Frye Road/Highway 182/Highway 82 junction and pulled off to the side of the road. John and I scampered up the concrete ramp and we were off on Highway 82 traveling east.

John had his umbrella and I had my rain jacket on. It was cloudy with a threat of rain. On we walked towards Columbus, MS. We passed Catalpa Creek and several catfish ponds. One pond had numerous egrets just waiting for a tender morsel to swim by.

It started raining in earnest by now, so we ducked under a handy overpass and called Ruth to pick us up. We had walked 8 miles and planned to do more if the weather cleared.

Also, this was moving day. We moved from Indian Mound RV Park to Country Living RV Park just west of Columbia. After lunch, Carol us out again and we did an additional 6 miles. This time it was sunny and hot. Rain gear in the morning and sun screen in the afternoon.

We will walk through Columbus tomorrow and there is a chance that we may make Alabama also. Today we found a bungee cord and a hard hat. Stay tuned ...
