Road Trip

Saturday my two younger sisters and I left with some friends from Pensacola/Gulf Breeze Florida, to attend a party in Jackson, Mississippi that night. The party was just a-ight. The trip was all about getting there, and we all had a blast. Once again, Jarad was the ring leader. After the party, we rode two hours through the pitch black Mississippi night on unpaved roads to Greenville, Jarad's hometown. We left the party a little after midnight, and after we got to Jarad's parent's house where we would spend the night, I didn't get to bed til around 3 am. We had to be up by about seven in the morning to get ready for the Kingdom Hall, which started at nine-thirty. By the end of the trip we were all a little cranky due to lack of sleep, but we all survived with friendships intact.

It turns out that Greenville is a pretty historic place, the home of a world-famous newpaper (the Delta Democrat Times), and a lot of writers, musicians and the like. Sunday afternoon Jarad took me on a mini-tour of the downtown area, and I got a lot of great shots of the old buildings. I've got some pictures from the party and the trip in general, so I'll be posting those soon as I can. I'll also include a more indepth description of the trip.
