November 13,
Willie Nelson’s On The Road Again, set the mood for our drive today through the Natchez Trace. The Natchez Trace is a 400 mile road that winds through the countrysides of Tennessee and Mississippi. It was the buffalo trail that the Native Americans followed centuries ago. Today the road meanders through lovely hard wood forests. We stopped to view a few historic sites including Native American mounds that were used for ceremonial and/or burial purposes.
The three hour drive terminated in Vicksburg where we plan to visit the National Park tomorrow. Mark is particularly interested to see where Grant won the battle that took place here.
