Traveling back East...

After being back in Lubbock for a month and a half, Caroline and I will be traveling back East next weekend. As usual, I'll be covering the countryside visiting gins, but this time I'll mostly be in Alabama and Georgia. Fortunately, I'll also get to spend a week in MS to teach at the MSU Gin School in Stoneville. We're looking forward to seeing everyone. After two snows, a spell of hail, and the incessant West Texas wind, we're definitely ready to see MS again.
