Yo Ashford, I lived in Vicksburg back in 1982, commuting daily to Grand
Gulf. I must say, Top-O-the-River was my favorite catfish joint!! My
favorite festival - Natchez Crawfish Festival, one entry fee for the
weekend, all you can eat or drink back then. Then I lived in Baton
Rouge in 1984 commuting to St. Francesville, Fav's in the Rat area was
Ralph and Kukoos, and "The Kitchen" started by Cajun Chef Don.
Ah yes, Mississippi, the land of Kudzu, huge insects, catfish and mudbugs!
