April 8, 2016. Madison, Mississippi. The Mall.

Jackson has a covered mall but until today we had never set our feet inside the place.   Actually, the Mall is in Ridgeland.   Our friends Don and Doreen discovered the Mall when they were looking for a place to walk.  We suggested Dillards but had not realized that the store is adjacent and attached to a mall.  The first day they walked in Dillards and after then they walked the Mall which they reported was a pleasant place for walking.  Don likes to walk in an area where the ground is level and a mall fits the bill.

Jackson has a lot of rain so I suggested that we explore the Mall for walking on days when the weather is not conducive to walking outdoors, so today we did.  Ken even knew a drive without using busy roads so it took us ten minutes to park the truck and go into Dillards to explore.  There are two levels in the Mall, full of interesting store to keep us entertained.  We discovered that Dillards has two stores, one at each end of the Mall.  When we walked the Mall looking for Dillards, we discovered we had only walked half way around the Mall.  The elevator took us down to the small food court where we bought our late lunch, half of which we brought home for a later meal.  All this food for $12.   Ken is good with directions so took us back upstairs to the Dillards where we parked.  I was convinced we should be turning left.  Now we know the ins and outs of this Mall and can walk there anytime we are inclined.  This is a good thing because we should walk every day.  Now there is no excuse on a rainy day!!
