In fact the house i live in Warrenton Ga. has "Haint Blue" painted on the front porch to keep them from coming in the front door.....

Before I was born, they also had Chicago Milla and an air force base.

Also I'm a bit late to the game but these videos have been my respite. Work is unexpectedly super overwhelming and I've been playing your backroads videos to remind myself of the peace and simplicity of roadtrips and also to remind myself that the world is so much bigger than my stresses. It helps me ponder what life is like in those little towns and gets me out of my own stress. That was a long way of saying, these are such grounding, relaxing videos. Thank you!

Georgia has it too, right? Seems like I remember seeing it there. I drove through MS with 2 friends in July '64, as a naive 20 yr old, from Texas, going to the NY World's Fair, and was on the hwy into Meridian. It was a beautiful drive with nothing but forest between towns. However, my main memory was NOT so pleasant, since we were followed by a Sheriff (Stetson hat, aviator sunglasses) for miles into Meridian...then he circled the cafe 3 times, where we stopped to eat, and watched us thru the glass windows! It was like we were the only "out of towners" in the state! YEP! You guessed it...that was after the Civil rights workers had been killed a few weeks. We were tourists, not civil rights workers! We got out of there asap! (They found the boys about 10 days later...) I haven't been in any southern state east of Shreveport, LA since!

Wayne Gross, it's name is "Red Bluff," and is called Mississippi's Little Grand Canyon." The creek in the bottom helped carve it. It is on private land in Foxworth, MS, but it is open to the public.

12:42 That’s my hometown! It’s not as run down as most of this. It has a “real” Cracker Barrel, too. That gas station was there before it was. BTW, they’re pronounced “Loose-dale” and “B-yood”.

I love Mississippi (or as most of us say, Misipi). I grew up there. My daddy's family came down from Chicago after immigrating from Eastern Europe and made riches from bootlegging during prohibition (lasted in Mississippi until 1966). I'm always glad they came to Mississippi because it has a certain spirit about it you don't find in the rest of the US, but it's also a tired, sad place. Maybe that's what gives it so much character and why we have so many authors and artists. Folks have told me they felt darkness and sadness driving through there but I still love my home. Those dying towns are sad to see. Eventually the roofs will cave in and everything will be gone. Thanks very much for the video.

Back in 1964 or '65, my family lived in upstate NY. My parents took us to visit relatives in Georgia. Remember now, it was before Rt. 95 existed, and so once we got below Allentown Pa where Rt 81 ended, the entire rest of the trip took place on paved roads, and primary roads like in your video, but no highways. And I gotta tell ya, seeing all the back roads of the south, it was the best vacation we ever had. It took us two days (and by the way, we didn't have air-conditioning in our car in those days), but in terms of scenery, it was the best! Great memories. .

Red Bluff! I remember when you could drive that road. Haven’t been up that direction since long before they closed it off. Now I see why they did it lol. Lucedale is pronounced Loose Dale. Bude, just literally make the letter u sound when you say it. There are some crazy names for towns here in MS. I’m sure everyone of them have an awesome story behind them though. Of course that’s in every state. If ever you come back through MS again you really need to stop at the Old Country Store in Lorman, MS. They have some of the best fried chicken in the state and you will love the nostalgia of the place. My personal favorite was the smothered pork chops. The owners came out and shared with everyone the story of their restaurant. Then the old man sang to us all. He went around to all the tables and spoke to everyone. It was an experience. Cool to see some of the places I’ve passed through in your videos.
