| The Pond to Fort Adams Road brings you to Fort Adams. (see how well those namings work!) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| At the base of the hill was this old house. Particular care has been taken with awning the porch. It gets real hot in MS. You must do what you can. It also rains. You figured that out with all that green you just went through, didn't you? |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ft. Adams has two roads in, MS.24 and this one. Miss.24 is 19 miles to Woodville. It is endless. Take my word for it. Fort Adams is......I'll get into that later. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Pond to FA hits MS 24 at the new steel building church, across from this old building with all the old dark stuff on the dark porch. It was dark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Riding into "town", it was evident that this was not a new subdivision. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Real shutters adorn this quaint mid-1800's home on Main Street, Fort Adams. Call Mary Louise Shakesnider at 555-SHO-HOME for a viewing. |

| Adjacent to this home is what may have been another home or apartment. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The south side is not opened. Notice the sun on its wall. This stucture features environmetal planning. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| One block over, the house with the red columns caught my eye. I say it was a store. I can see horses being tied up to the hitching post and Merl and Mell going in for some chaw. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This one is the beauty spot of Fort Adams. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Read below. If history can slap you , this should slap you silly. I was. 1682 wasn't yesterday, not even last week. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This is the way I do it. I read something and if I'm not an expert on the term, yet, I look it up, unless I want to remain ignorant, which is alway my exit from being more smart. Ok, these are the terms I find ignorizing: (act of making one feel ignorant). Fr.Membre LaSalle Fr.du Ru Houmas Indians Fr.Gravier and much more. Now I'll search out these annoying bits of history. Oh, but there is so much more to Fort Adams. |
