Specifically can someone please direct me to a Juke Joint and a Church that are a must see. Thank you for you help, and I look forward to meeting what I consider to be my people in the South. |

Great little place there where you can buy bedsheets really cheap..pillowcases too. Sorry, no patterns or colors...just white muslin, although I understand percale is catching on lately. Spaw |

At least drop by and see them as you pass through Clarksdale. Brian |
