canopy

Time in my adopted home state of #Mississippi is winding down, and I’ve been spending the last week or so visiting places I love. One thing I will miss very much when I leave Mississippi? All the beautiful trees. From Southern live oak trees to magnolias (so fragrant in the spring) to Georgia pines (so tall), the trees here are magnificent. And plentiful.

In downtown Jackson, there is a stretch of Pascagoula Street that unfurls east of Jefferson in a wonderfully stretchy way. And the trees on this street–some of which are adorned with Spanish moss–create the most lovely canopy. I pulled my car to the side of the street earlier today to capture this beauty. Might have to frame this photo so I can carry a little piece of Mississippi wherever I go.
