All good Binns memories start with, as Richard calls it, sweet nectar (aka Mt. Dew). 
The Binns crew started out yesterday afternoon for our annual family gulf shores trip. I was so proud of myself for booking a room on line to save $10, only to get there at 11pm last night, to a town out of power! Vicksburg, MS had been hit by an electrical storm. Poor town. When we finally found the hotel (no power meant no lights on the hotel signs), the front desk clerk gave us our money back due to no air and a mosquito issue. We then were on a search for a hotel (where money was no longer a concern.
We finally checked into a hotel in Jackson, MS at 1:15 am. Thank goodness checkout wasn't until 11am. Did I mention we somehow ended up in the scary part of town at midnight last night and was never so grateful that Richard was a redneck and "packing"
We are excited about a week of sleeping, eating my very favorite foods, and reading! Oh, and swimming of course.
Beach-here we come!
