A Weekend in Hattiesburg, Mississippi

This past weekend was actually our second here in Hattiesburg, but since it was spent searching through boxes for food and clothes, I consider this our first "real weekend" at our new home, which caused me to pose the following question:

What does one do on a weekend in Hattiesburg?

Well, anyway, here's what we did.

Friday night, we joined the home-team crowd at the University of Southern Mississippi football game.









Britt made friends with the group next to us.  I was glad of this because that meant he had someone to talk football with besides me.





Lots of people in attendance, great atmosphere, and a victory for the Golden Eages over the University of Kansas Jayhawks!


On Saturday morning, we visited the Longleaf Trace Nature Trail, which is about half a mile from our house.





There are various biking and jogging trails through the dense woods.  We did a quick three-miler.





It was quite a popular area, and hopefully we'll return again soon and be regulars on the trails.

What else do you have for us, Hattiesburg?

  1. I didn't know y'all ended up in Hattiesburg!!!! That's not as close to me as the other places y'all were looking :(

    I'm proud of you though... I probably would have stayed at home rather than getting out & exploring like y'all did!
