Hot Springs, Arkansas to Vicksburg, Mississippi!!!!

Waking up to my beautiful view in Hot Springs, Arkansas...it looked a bit cloudy and rainy...decided to head south to Vicksburg, Mississippi!  With a surprise ride through Louisiana...Lake Providence is a wonderful little town set on a beautiful lake...
Once again ...not much to report...mostly the same beautiful 2 lane local roads connecting towns...all that were quite charming, excluding Tallulah, Louisiana...
However a couple funny things happened..i was eating lunch in Sheridan, Arkansas at an adorable little diner with no veggie things on the menu, but they did make me a nice wrap and baked potato...my waitress says we got a vegetarian..haha...
And in the place was a table with 2 young men who were on a lunch break..they looked but 16, were probably 25...and one acted like he was 50...i actually heard him talking about hunting several animals that were in his freezer...but i only started listening...after he mentioned squirrel...yes....squirrel...Then he was telling another story about some couple where the lady shot him with a .22 rifle, because they were fighting...
i was having a nice giggle...
Today's ride ended with crossing the Mississippi River into Vicksburg...where i am staying over...having a blast...sweet dreams ya'll!!
