Columbus, Mississippi in the cool air

We headed south to escape the cold of St. Louis.  Today it is cold in Mississippi.  Maybe we need to keep moving south.  We like this marina and get mail forwarded here and are getting our truck delivered from the Alton Marina because our friends, Oma and Kenneth are bringing it here and having Thanksgiving with us.  How nice is that?
We spent a winter here about 4 years ago with other Loopers and enjoyed it.  The town is historic and buildings downtown are listed in the Historic Registry as is the Methodist church used during the Civil War as a hospital for both North and South.  It is a huge church and very active in doing things for the community and missions.  Today they loaded 24,843 boxes of food destined to the Philippines for relief of the people without their homes after the storm. We enjoy this church and some remembered us from last time.


Mums given to me by daughter Lara are surviving from Boise to Mississippi but the cold weather may take them out.
