Stegosauras and Sarah

Discovered while exploring downtown: 1 Shiny stegosauras

Apparently a few years ago they had a Cows on Parade type thing with Dino's going on around Pgh. That explains the T Rex at the airport!

If you are going to fry, you might as well fry

Yesterday afternoon we took a road trip of sorts. We headed down the Trace in search of some good eats. Due to a late start, we didn't hit our intended target, the Lorman Country Store. Instead we made our way down to Natchez, a beautiful town down river from Vicksburg. We began our afternoon of fun with dinner at the Cock of the Walk -- a fun restaurant overlooking the river. It was fried goodness all around -- and if you are going to fry, you might as well fry. The cornbread has just the right amount of jalapenos and the onion rings were glorious in their fried goodness. Plus, how can you go wrong when you are served your food in metal feed pans and you drink out of aluminum mugs!!!

We learned that the cock of the walk was the best fighter on a flat-boat. we also saw some crazy scary fake topiaries. Apparently Kristen is our Cock of the Walk. Who would have thought?

After dinner we wandered down to Natchez under the Hill for a beverage and sunset. The river is still way high down there!!! Sunset was breathtaking, and picturesque. Eventually we made our way to another Natchez 'must do' -- Fat Mama's Tamales. We were too full after eating our own weight in grease to go for tamales, however we did take the chance to imbibe in some Knock you Naked Margaritas. YummY!!!

Note: Natchez is precariously close to New Orleans. You never know what type of signage you might see!

Fun times! Thanks for going and making the trip such fun times peeps!
