The hook-up point will be in Meridian , Mississippi on Saturday evening Dec.26 . The motel info is below. Cost will be $55.00 single or double and tax is included in that price. This is a weather pending ride and the motel will let us call the day of the ride to cancel if necessary. We'll have a couple Cajun's showing us some of their favorite back roads and eating spots when we roll out Sunday morning ( Thanks Dennis ( Troutdude ) and Brother Daryl  ). The Saturday 12/26 motel has a Applebee's a Bull Feathers and a Cracker Barrel in walking distance of our rooms . She is going to try and keep us all together and on the ground floor ( park at your door ) . You need to say " GULF COAST RIDE " when making reservations . Post back to this thread if you do plan on joining us ....Thanks Days Inn Meridian Address: 145 US-11, Meridian, MS 39301 Phone:(601) 483-3812

We will base out of BiloxiJefferson Davis' house is in Biloxi. Katrina nuked it, but the SCV and the UDC have rebuilt it. I visited it before Katrina, it was so awesome and old and Southern, the moss and the trees on the grounds... probably worth a stop... http://www.beauvoir.org/
