Day 28- French Camp, MS to Jackson, MS

I had a fabulous breakfast (probably twice what anyone else ate) at the B&B in French Camp. Today was my last day on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Boo. It's absolutely beautiful and I would jump at the chance to bike the whole thing.

About 5 miles to go, I met a man named David and he finished out the day with me. I was hosted by Don and Becky in Jackson. We went to an art exhibition at the oldest house in Jackson. 

Then we went to dinner at Babalu (based on the Desi & Lucy theme). Don said it's slated to go national and now I can say I ate at the first one! They made guacamole fresh at your table. 

They have an awesome horse named Willow who lives in the front yard of their suburban house. She's a hit with the whole neighborhood. 

We concluded the evening by talking about Don's plan to bike the Great Divide next summer and the pros and cons of hosting cyclists. We see mostly the pros.
