    Eddie, heading your way

    Eddie,

    I will be heading out Friday around noon with a friend for Mendehall, Mississippi for a long weekend. We are delivering his fathers car to his brother. It will be my first trip to Mississippi so I kind of excited. May go kill a turkey if we have some extra time.

    Stay away from the big funeral there, though.

    Theodoria Landing??? Sounds like a good spot for a bait shop and a boat ramp.

    Yes, Representative Jessica Upshaw....53 year old former attorney....actually, a resident and representative from the MS gulf coast....not from Mendenhall, however, so I doubt if the funeral will be held there....the suicide did actually occur at a colleague's home in Mendenhall....lots of unanswered questions, and officials are still investigating.

    Appears to be a happy stable lady, but you never know.
