This piece is a tribute to my home state of Mississippi.

Mississippi!

State bird: Mockingbird

State Flower: Magnolia

The Hospitality State.

The birthplace of the Blues, Medgar Evers, Elvis Presley, Rick Ross, Jimmy Buffet, Jerry Rice & Oprah.

The sweet tea, catfish & sweet potato capital.

The land where John B. Stetson first learned how to make hats!

Where the dollar sign, teddy bear and soft toilet seat were invented.

A great state that will always be a part of me!
