Sylvia, I'm glad you asked how to get to Leakesville! (Victor, you can read this post so you'll have the information for future reference when Leakesville becomes the social capitol of the South!)
1. Take US 98/Moffett Road west out of Mobile, through Semmes and Wilmer, and into Mississippi.
2. Nine miles past the MS/AL state line, you'll see a yellow ("yeller," as we say in Greene County) blinking ("blankin") light ("liiiite"). Turn RIGHT at the blinking light onto MS Hwy. 63, and head north for 17 miles.
3. After crossing the Chickasawhay (pronounced "where am I?!") River bridge, turn RIGHT at the first stop sign.
4. Travel 75 yards and turn LEFT onto Oak Street. The MSU Extension Office will be on your right, almost immediately.
Hope to see folks here!
