You're Never Too Old To Learn

THINGS MEMA LEARNED ON DESTIN TRIP:





*You don't go over the Mississippi River twice between Little Rock and Destin. That other big bridge goes over the Yazoo River


*Those big box things are grain silos.

*Southeastern Louisiana State University is not in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.


*Self-checkout. She had "never seen anything like that before!"

THINGS MARGIE DISCOVERED ON DESTIN TRIP:
*You don't have to read any street signs while travelling with Mema. She will read them all to you.




*The way to keep Mema from talking non-stop is to get her up early to leave. The talking only starts after she's been awake past 9:00.



*Mema and Aunt Boochie stopped at some random field while driving through the Delta onetime and picked a cotton ball to see what it was like.

*Mema's idea of a few minutes is 45 so plan accordingly.

I am sure I will learn more things Thanksgiving, so I'll be sure to do a follow up.
