I am still surprised when driving to familiar places, when walking over the land and when on back roads.
Our landscape has changed.
As it regrows, heals and is cleaned up, our landscape will continue to change. The wounds of the ice storm will leave scars, even though grass, new plants and new trees may cover them.
I love to wake up and spend some time drinking my morning coffee and looking out the window at my flower garden (whether dormant or blooming), the bird feeders, the little pond and the trees within my sight.

The Mississippi House recently went all-in to legalize online sports betting in the state.
House Bill 4074 passed 101-10, a surprisingly large margin, especially when you recall that the much-hyped school choice legislation got through the House by only two votes before dying in a Senate committee.

Too many young people still leave Mississippi to chase opportunities elsewhere. MCPP is on a mission to help change that - by creating the conditions for real, sustained growth so our children and grandchildren choose to stay, build lives, and thrive right here in our state.
The good news? Mississippi is no longer a laggard, but leading.

Poor Speaker White. His omnibus school choice bill got short shrift in the Senate. His resort now appears to be name calling. “Senate leadership has aligned themselves with the ACLU, Southern Poverty Law Center, the Mississippi Democratic Party, and the status quo,” he whined.
