Away from home (RV) in Mississippi

I moved from my RV home for a few days to stay in my friends WONDERFUL HOME.What a great sleep! (on a Select Comfort bed) This place is awesome!  The Lady of the house was born and raised here and I now understand why they moved back to Mississippi.  The original house she was raised in is still here but they designed and built a perfect house on the same piece of property.  I met some of the neighbors (black and white) who were over (every Friday night) for a game of "Hand and Foot".  I had never heard of it.  It is a card game and after they explained it, it sounded like fun.  They were a great group.
I got a tour of the house last night and there is nothing left out.  Lot's of nooks and crannies for storage (they used to have an RV so they knew how to utilize space) and efficiency in everything!
Beautiful 22 acres of fruit trees (all planted by them) and open lawn (cleared by them), a large work shop (Built by them) with full RV hook-ups.
I would like to share with you, my perceptions on the South.  It is quite different than the first time I drove through it in 1965, during the Civil Rights movement.  At that time I was a Civil Rights sympathizer, driving a red VW bug, with California tags, with a  (17 yr. old Jewish Hippy) Hitch- hicker.  That is another story.  I remember crying through Mississippi and Alabama and didn't stop driving (except for gas) or crying until I reached Georgia.  It was very oppressive and it could be felt in the atmosphere.  Then I was afraid. 
Now, I feel differently and am enjoying my time here.  I will let you more as I go along.  People are friendly and I am enjoying myself so much.
What a journey!
