The Natchez Trace Parkway is a gem, 444 miles of deserted road through lovely countryside with no traffic lights or billboards, I got as far as Utica before turning off for the Vicksburg National Military Park, what an eye-opener that was. I took five hours to go 'round it and to be honest I could have taken two or three days. Tomorrow I rejoin the Trace up to see Elvis's birthplace in Tupelo.

Bet your bloody glad you got your driving licence ! Great photographs mate and it looks and sounds like you all had ball .... I got my picture taken with Uncle Louis too .... happy memories and like you I'm going back for more :D))
ReplyDeleteWe never made the Trace but everything I read and whoever I spoke to like you raved about it .... glad you got there.
Tupelo you'll love small 'hick' town by the railway but just a great place and give my regards to the old boy in the hardware store ... we sent him some photographs so we may have made his 'notice board' .. check it out !
Tupelo befor Memphis is the right way round and you will feel his 'roots' when you get to Graceland. Going to go and load our 'road trip' photos on my digital picture frame .... got itchy feet again .... oh no !!
Glad you are lovin it ....
Happy Days
