We are taking a classic family trip across the USA. To document it and let others know of our adventures, we are posting the trip here

In Mississippi on our way to Pensacola beach. If y'all wondering our truck is fine and nothin' to horrible happened. We just stopped at a gas station and every where we see advertisements for boiled peanuts. We saw them again at the gas station. ( It must be a Mississippi thing.) for two bucks it was worth the try. The lady showed us how to eat them correctly. You suck the juice out and then eat the insides. We got the Cajun kind, so it was spicy. They didn't taste anything like peanuts. The nut itself is a strange taste. They aren't to bad.
This morning I showered with bugs that would fit in your palm. Nothin like it! It took me longer to take a shower 'cause I had to keep an eye on them. I could swear that they were plotting to jump me! ;) but it was half expected when it comes to camping. All part of the adventure!
It has gotten so humid so fast! It feels nice in a way. But all y'all know that i am weird like that! But the rain is quite beautiful. It has been drizzling since we got up. You know I have been seeing a lot of one thing that I have not ever seen in NM.... Signs that say "watch for ice on bridge"
I am loving all the greenery in Mississippi! So many trees!! Last night we sat outside and all you could hear was chirping of birds. As most of you know I love nature...... But showering with big bugs is not my thing.
For all you BBC fans and whovians, i am on Moffat Rd!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are in Loxley. I really hope most of you get where that is from. Hint: Robin of Loxley
We just stopped at Burris market and bakery. His weekend is a strawberry festival. So we bought locally grown strawberries. I be those will be good!!
