15 SEP - Corinth, MS to Searcy, AR [Mike's home]

When the sun rises in Corinth, MS, get your hungry self over to "Abe's" for breakfast.


There's Abe behind Mike and if you're slow to order, Abe will urge you along: "What kind of eggs do you want?" "OK, now meat... pork tenderloin, pork brain or country ham?" "What kind of gravy on your biscuits... sawmill, red-eye or chocolate?" "Any grits or potatoes?" "Coffee or sweet tea?"




After breakfast, who wouldn't ride 60 miles southwest to "Phillip's Grocery" in Holly Springs, MS, a "Road Food" spot known for their hamburgers?


The burgers were OK. The old-time collectibles in the store might have been the best feature.
