Welcome!

When we told people we were packing up our suburban life near Baton Rouge, Louisiana and moving to Woodville, Mississippi, we were met with blank stares, puzzled looks and, eventually, the question “Why?'“ This blog documents our adventures and answers to that “Why” each day we spend in our rural community.

Living in a rural area has its disadvantages--like having to drive to larger cities for some things you can't get here. But I try to look at those outings as adventures.

Last night we drove to Zachary for some things, and on our way home we decided to take a detour across the Audubon Bridge (if you haven't been across the Mighty Mississippi River via this suspension bridge, plan an outing!) to New Roads where we knew we'd get a good meal at Southern Chicks Cafe. What we didn't expect was such incredible service with a spectacular smile by employee Rae Rae. What a positive young woman!

Small-town folks are the heart of small-town businesses!
