Exploregonians
38. Laurel, Mississippi
We’re in the Deep South now, according to a pair of high school girls working in a Laurel, Mississippi ice cream parlor.
Katie and Jordan discuss how they never expected to romp around Mississippi and visit the homeland of the popular HGTV show “Home Town” and realize our best friend is a Ben Napier doppelgänger.
Jordan wonders if Laurel overemphasizes fun, eye-catching design in its downtown over quality businesses and Katie reminds everyone the city is home to one Lance Bass.
Katie’s art-spirit is reawakened at the (free and spectacular and enormous) Lauren Rogers Art Museum, which is home to some excellent collections and some very tiny baskets.
