What a great find not far from the Mississippi and Louisiana border. Lynyrd Skynyrd was a band that helped propel southern rock into the national spotlight and while they were not here for very long until tragedy struck, they are still remembered today. I am not sure if this was the exact location of the plane crash that claimed several of the band members lives, but it is a touching tribute to this band. read more

I was driving Northbound on I-55 after crossing from Louisiana into Mississippi and saw a sign for the Lynyrd Skynyrd Memorial about Exit 8 or so, and I was intrigued. Why is there a memorial for this great 1970's rock and roll band here? Well, because this is where the crash happened that killed members of the band. Once I got to the end of the exit ramp, there was a sign pointing west and 8 miles. The first couple of miles were smooth, but the last mile or so, the road is bumpy. There are no other attractions off this exit, you have to look for this. Go forward down this road for about 7.5 miles, make a turn south at the sign and drive another .5 of a mile. This is truly an amazing spot. I am so very glad I decided to come and see this. Whoever created this honestly cares about the group and the music. This is out freaking standing. Seriously. If you are passing thru, stop on by. Donate something. Enjoy. read more
