Stuff Around Here

Peoples is always asking me what there is to see around here. The answer is: A lot. I like to refer to the top spots as the Seven Wonders of Southwest Mississippi. Today I'm gonna tell you about the Leaning Silo of Butter. It's over yonder in Butter, Mississippi on a farm owned by a fellow named MacDoodle. Seems like the dirt on one side was a little too loose and the building started to sink after a year or two. They tell me they has a leaning building over in It-ley across the ocean and thousands of peoples come ever year to see it. Well if y'all want to see a leaning building and don't want to mess with flying to Atlanta (you most always have to do that) and catch another plane or two to It-ley, you can just come here and I'll give you directions. It's real easy to get there. You just head straight down Harper Lake Street and hang a left where the Old Salem Baptist Church used to be.
Tomorrow: The Hanging Garden of Brassfield

Hollis' book of the day:
