Natchez was the end of the Trace and the end of the journey...
A visit to the grocery store was a delightful experience.The food has changed
now adding African,creole, and Cajun to the menu. I bought some ingredients for Jambalaya and for Corn Soup Gumbo.I am wishing I could take it all home with me.
We visited the Bluff overlooking the river, the main streets of the town; There are ante bellum homes here that are places for tourists to visit.
We think looking at the more common place homes is more interesting. Free slaves lived in Natchez during the Civil War under a set of rules. They owned homes
some of which are preserved.There was an interesting Garden, public buildings.
The people are friendly. We ate at the Pig Out Barbeque which is owned by
a transplanted northerner. He tells us that Natchez is really good at survival...
they easily move to Plan B. He thinks its part of their history.
