Day 21 Somewhere in Mississippi. (APS)

We got up this am and headed over to Globe Life Park to take the Rangers' Stadium tour which was great!  We got to go to the dugout, press box, private suites, batting cages, etc... Our tour guide was hilarious!  She was a tiny little old lady who was quite serious about her job which made it very comical!  I bet she was a school teacher many moons ago- I can see myself doing that in 30 years!  After the tour we piled into the old suburban and headed out for our next stop- somewhere in Mississippi. Along the way we began plans to make an unexpected stop in West Monroe, LA to visit the Duck Dynasty warehouse. When you are that close, you just have to stop! As we pulled into the parking a yell quickly emerged from the backseat. Jack was totally beside himself with delight!  While we couldn't go into the warehouse where the calls are made but we did get to go in the other section where there was a gift shop filled with as much Duck  Dynasty paraphanalia as one could ever want!  I must say, however, that this really was a fun stop and am glad that we made it!  Our plan was to stop in Vicksburg, MS but when we got there we decided to drive a little further so we could cut our driving time down tomorrow to Atlanta. We drove on to Pearl, MS (just outside of Jackson) and used some points for our night at the Country Inn and Suites. Everyone is so excited that this is our last night in a hotel as we will be with Sara tomorrow night and home on Saturday!  Kevin won't get back from the World Cup until Saturday a.m. but we will get to see him for a bit!
