A warm welcome to you, Toot! I am also a North Carolina girl. I have been through Mississippi one time on vacation, I would love to go back again someday. Blessings to you!
Hi there and welcome !! You got that right sewnsow. Most people drive 2 or 3 hours and they are out of their state. In Texas you drive 2 or 3 hours and you are not even out of town.
