Cute Natchez things

Here are a couple of amusing things I found in Natchez:

Jimmy the Cricket
We went to tour an antebellum home in Natchez and found this guy, dressed so charmingly. He told me about his outfit and how he dressed up and went to the house's cook and said, "Who do you think I look like?"

She thought about it for a while then replied, "Jimmy the Cricket."

He found it so hilarious that she said that instead of Jiminy Cricket that he's even had business cards printed for the pilgrimage that read Jimmy the Cricket.

(He's my Facebook friend now so I can keep up with his adventures.)



Sign at the mall

Casey Ann Hughes told us her relative calls the Natchez Mall the 'Small' because there's not much in it. I had to go there on an emergency visit because my phone went flat and I needed a charger.

An amusing sign greeted us:



"Mel!" I said to my husband. "You pull up those hanging pants of yours right now or we can't go in."
