"Citing Miranda, his six year old daughter" - grungebob, that's a good one ! Too funny.
Ya'll enjoy the day, I'm hitting the roads, hopefully not hitting the deer, and hopefully no tickets.

Well, if you're attorney is worried about you admitting to anything -
The answer to "do you know how fast you were going" is "yes" - the answer to "do you know why I pulled you over" is "no". Polite, simple, and truthful.

I remember Christmas shopping at night downtown as a kid. Of course back then we came to town in a covered wagon pulled by a dinosaur...used up two parking spaces by McCrory's...
This could be a really nice thing for Natchez. Couple things tho-
"Downtown shops will remain open until 8 p.m. that day. " Hopefully they will open nearly that late more than the one day. Night under the lights is a great time to shop in a downtown shops setting. If they close at 6PM, I'll be coming downtown for the atmosphere, but probably having to shop at the big city because they are open later. Again.
My usuals even sorely missed my annual fudge gift last year because my weekends were all tied up, and I couldn't finish my weekday commute in time to make it on weeknights.
"carols by the tree from 5 to 6 p.m." Ditto here, would be nice to stretch this to 8PM as well.
Apologies if that's nitpickin' on my part - hope its a big success. I'll be there.

That's understandable. I missed a court (not traffic) date once because the summons server couldn't find my new house, and stuck the notice in a neighbor's door. Said they knew I lived around somewhere near there, thought the neighbor would give it to me.
I've always had good experiences with our area troopers, well all but one, and they are out there doing a dangerous job. Give them some room - work with them.
I got pulled over late one night because a trooper behind me kept noticing his headlights reflecting in a silver can I was swigging from. It was a Barq's Root Beer. We had a good laugh over it.

Crossed the ferry down at St. Fran the other day, and it was docking up in the treeline to get to the landing.

I got Led Zep in the mp3 player...and I turn it up enough that what is left of my hair blows like a windy day.

Temps gonna be great with that cool front thru, great for the music stages.
Hopefully they'll get at least the morning flights in - NOAA winds forecast to be from North 5-8 early Saturday - around 13 gusting 20 by midday, Sunday looks a lot better calm to 3 early, and less than 10's midday. It's usually pretty close on their forecast this time of year, but you never know when the weather guys are gonna miss it.

My stepson was Doc in Fallujah, his bunch based out of Kaneohe Bay so I thank you both for your service.

Forgot about the Wildlife Fest this weekend. I have a family thing in the country, might leave after that and go on down 61.
On Angels on the Bluff cemetery tours planned for next month

OldGrandDad, you are so right, I do understand that. Had a small shop once. Nevah agin.
But at the same time, a business can't compete or complain when you shop elsewhere if the hours don't compare, and can't expect to draw from all around an area like ours if the folks who work or live out of town can't get there before you close for the night. Maybe one long night a week would work ?
Best of luck to all the local merchants, there are some special places in Natchez. Hope to be in them all this year !
On 'Christmas in Natchez' starts Nov. 27
