Not having ever spent time in the deep south, Mississippi is an interesting place. I do love the accents, I do not love the food (there is apparently nothing you can't deep fry), the weather is hot and humid, and it seems like a beautiful area in general. I saw my first cotton fields on the way to our site visit, which along with corn and soybeans, is one of the main production crops.
The Value Engineering study I am assisting on this week is for a project on the Red River lock and dam in eastern Louisiana. We had to drive 3 and a half hours to get there from Vicksburg and 3 and a half hours back. The time we spent on the river - actually going through the lock! - during our site visit was almost enough to make the trip worth it :)
