The bus got into Vicksburg nearly on time. I met some recently released convicts while I waited for the town taxi. Two guys in a car with an estimated price. My friend Davey and I killed a riverboat casinos lunch buffet (Grand Station Hotel). We covered 20 miles in 3 hours passing numerous barges, 10s of thousands of gathered migrating pelicans, past swirling pools and to this spot to camp. Feels like the middle of nowhere but with cell phone signal. Nothing else but mile wide river and the occasional barge with a spotlight. The sun went down perfect while full moon rose at our backs. Time to drink beer, eat hot dogs, and reflect on peeing into a plastic peanut jar and wide open spaces. wish me luck on cold night in cold walmart tent.
