Are there any good junk stores along 61 ??
For the life of me, I can't think of one, though you'd certainly expect to find 1 or 2 along the way. There might be something in Cleveland or Greenville.

I love driving down 61 through the Delta. Greenville is the Hot Tamale capital of the world. Back in the day 30 or so years ago, Doe's had the best tamales in the world. Don't know if they are still in business or are any good now.
Doe's is still open, and is generally considered one of the top steakhouses in the South.

Returned from my trip. Really joyed the Ms and La. Delta. I thought I would try to share a little with ya'll about the trip. My Mother was going to see a niece that she helped raise.Stage 3 terminal cancer.I drove 9 nine hours to pick Mom up at the airport and be with her during this difficult time. I thought we would get a short visit. I ended up picking up the slack and helping a very tired husband for a week. It was one of the most emotional up and down experiences in my life.A lot of laughing ,crying ,and praying. I have never been in a house with so much love and faith .I'm serious you could feel it in the air.. People coming and going that had been affected by the couple.No telling how many marriages and lives they have saved with prayer,counseling and testimony.Long story short she got her check up and 6 months later having problems with ingestion, gas, ect. and they found it.Guys and Gals tell em and show em that you LOve them .Weather it is a spouse,family member or friend.No matter how much we hate going for check ups on our "Parts" you best be getting them and encouraging others to get them. and I mean full blown top to bottom all the nooks, crack's ,and crevices. Early detection of many cancers are treatable. I'm sure the Pierson's prayer hot line to the lord has been going non stop but if you have a minute they can use all they can get.

Doe's is still open, and is generally considered one of the top steakhouses in the South. One of the best steaks I have ever eaten was at Doe's back around 2000. I was working down at the Mouth of the White River and we made the drive to Greenville one night. If I am not mistaken, I still have a key-chain from there. Good food for sure.
