Some of my favorite places
I moved back to Oxford in 2015. The town had changed so much. I have listed some of my favorite places in Oxford.
First of all, Ole Miss is my alma mater! (Class of 1974). Ole Miss is home to so many. Besides, the athletics, there is so much more to do. Many cultural performances are held at the Gertrude Ford Center. I am a volunteer there. The University Museum is phenomenal. Of course, needless to say the game seasons do speak for themselves.

This museum was at one time a United Methodist Church. With funds from John Grisham and obtaining grants, the museum now houses artifacts and information concerning African - American greats in Oxford - Lafayette. Take a journey through history at the Burns - Belfry Museum.

So much happens here. The Arts Council is housed here. Works of Arts by local artists and students are frequently on display. Film documentaries are often viewed at the Powerhouse. This is also a venue that can be rented for special occasions.

People literally from "near and FAR" have come to dine here. I took a Louisiana friend there once....from the outside of the establishment she had a "what in the world look". After getting on the inside after a long line...she still looked a little puzzled. Yet, boy did we both enjoy the food and service. "Award - Winning Catfish"...
