News from Home

I have posted the link above to the newspaper for the town just south of where I lived as a child. The stories there are some that make me proud. The story of the men banding together and clearing the roadways of trees and meeting the power companies coming the other way are what make me proud to say I'm from Mississippi. Not tales of waiting on someone else to help them. They got out and did the job themselves. That is what we as a society need to see on a daily basis. The government can help, but things will go quicker if we help ourselves.

Hurray to my fellow Mississippians. I am truly proud to be one of you! God Bless and keep you safe one and all.
