Serendipity

Through pure dumb luck, I have discovered two Mississippi institutions
in one evening.

The first was the Blue & White Restaurant in Tunica, where I enjoyed
the decadent tower posted earlier. I found it by driving past it; I
love finding locally-owned restaurants, and that certainly fit the bill.

The second was the Riverside Hotel in Clarksdale, where I'm currently
writing this. I'll write more later about Rat and his establishment,
but suffice it to say that this is the most unusual inn at which I've
ever had the good fortune to stay. I found it via my phone; I drove
past it twice in the dark.
