On The Move

 We've been on the move. We stopped in Vicksburg, MS at a not so nice park. The sites were nice and big but they haven't cut the grass for maybe a month. We won't go back to that park again. Vicksburg had a lot of civil war history. We went to the Lower Mississippi Museum. It had a lot of information on the Mississippi river and an Army Corp of Engineers river boat that we took a tour of.

It was huge. It worked on the river from 1962 to 1993.

The pilot house of the Mississippi IV.

The downtown in Vicksburg was pretty nice. They had a good brewery, The Key City Brewery. The beer was pretty good.

 Now we've moved to Tom Sawyer RV park. It's one of our top 5 favorites. It's right on the Mississippi river. It has huge, pull thru sites and they've added more sites in the last 5 years. It's in West Memphis, Arkansas. The town is not very nice, but the park is great. Just across the river is Memphis, TN so there's a lot of things to do there. Last time we were here, we hooked up with Mike and Sandy. You can get to their Blog from ours. Here is the link http://mills-travels.blogspot.com/.  We went to a Japanese restaurant with them last time, so we found it again, but since COVID, the place went bad. The food sucked. It's too bad. We will not be going back there. Oh, and the good Mexican restaurant that we went to, near the park, is now closed too.

We have THE best site in the park. We have a great view of all the barge traffic on the river.

The water looks a little low, but it's been going up every day.

This one was really close.

It's kind of fun just watching them go by, then look them up on the internet and read about them.

OK, food pictures! I had to put this one in. My whole slab. Memphis BBQ, in Horn Lake, MS. It's a little drive to get to but they have the best ribs that we've ever had! Three time world champion ribs! And man, they are good.

Peggy's half slab.

We always have to go down to Beale street to Silky O'Sullivan's to get the meat and cheese plate. Man, that's good too! We're here for another week so we have lots of time to hit more BBQ places. COVID killed one of our favorite stores downtown, Tater Red's. It was a really cool novelty store.  

Beale Street has some of the best music places around.
