Franklinton, LA to Poplarville, MS - April 16

Today we crossed into Mississippi!  Got off to a cold start, as overnight temperatures challenged the state records. the morning temp in Franklinton was 35. Once on the road, we quickly warmed up.  Temperatures were actually very pleasant around 10:00 when the sun was up. 

Bubba had mapped out a nice route, with the last half over country roads where we had little or no traffic.  The hills and the roads we reminded me of our earlier trip into Blanco, TX. 

It was a short day and we did our best to stretch out the day.  We stopped for donuts in Bogalousa, lunch at "Scooters" in Poplarville, and ice cream sundaes at the local Sonic.
