DELTA SUNRISE

I am actually running a few days behind schedule... but this is from friday morning. I got up uber early so I could catch that beautiful Delta Sunrise. I wasn't disappointed either. It's felt so good to be down here. Strange and so happy to be back. Some things change and some things don't ever change. And I love that about this area.

I remember in college coming home, and half the block at my parents house was new people and there were four new restaurants moved into the area. So weird and strange to see the urban sprawl coming to my hometown but from an outsider too.

Clarksdale, is slowly growing but not too fast for its britches, as the saying goes. I love that about it. There's no Starbucks in town. However, a friend is opening up a coffee shop/deli/art gallery/used book store/music venue and the coffee will be fresh and from Australia. I am excited for her. You go Rosalind!!

I felt so warm driving back down here, texted some friends once I made it back into the state, and got great responses back and even a phone call from one.

Welcome Home to the Durrty Souf!!!!
