Anyone who knows me, knows how much I love hiking. Having sustained a stress fracture last January, my hiking days have been on hold. After Christmas, I did an urban hike down Old Brandon Road from my parish in Pearl to downtown Jackson. It was a lot of fun - I did the same route two days in a row. Once I get my knee checked out again, I will be very ready to do this hike again. Hiking helps me feel so connected to my environment. Supposedly, this road had a lot of bootleggers in the Prohibition era and the early part of the 20th century. I love all the history I learn about my adopted state of Mississippi. It is so nice being back in the Jackson area. i love being back here.
