The motorhome is still parked at VFW Post #10567 in Southaven, Mississippi. The location is about 1/4 mile south of the Tennessee Border and about 10 miles south of the City of Memphis. We are now expecting to depart from here tomorrow.
Yesterday I drove the Bronco the about 10 miles to downtown Memphis where we visited the Mud Island River Park. You can read all about this place by clicking this Wikipedia link…

Then we went into the museum which is comprised of 18 galleries that showcase 10,000 years of history in the Lower Mississippi River Valley. The exhibits detail early inhabitants in the valley to modern-day transportation and contain over 5,000 artifacts; including two full size boat replicas which you can board and explore…
And back to the Bronco after another nice day…
Enjoying interesting places and museums is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer!
