It really is nice to see that while many things in the area have changed (I moved away 20 years ago; just moved back last week), some things have remained the same. This and the wash house are two of my favorite things to see around here.

Since I live in Virginia, it is difficult for me to do much from a distance. Best bet is probably either to contact the MDAH or perhaps contact the website https://misspreservation.com/. As noted in a comment above, the structure is listed as a Mississippi Landmark, so the MDAH will have some say in its preservation.Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417354679931031698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423291135476389262.post-41904110838291708722017-02-21T01:42:43.367-05:002017-02-21T01:42:43.367-05:00Hiya Edd ~ Whatever happened with this? ...
