Auburn at Ole Miss: Tailgating with Uncle Ed


Game Day. Outside the home of Ed and Elizabeth Dean.



Tailgating in The Grove at Ole Miss.


Friendly Enemies.

Lots of tents

Game Time



Pre-game Pageantry


Pre-game Hype





Touchdown, Ole Miss!


Treadwell jumps for joy (before Auburn broke his leg).



Then Auburn scored; and scored some more.




The Chi Omega House



Early the next morning, I return to the Memphis Airport the same way I arrived.

We'll have the fried crawfish, shrimp and grits, fried green tomatoes and the salmon BLT!




The Lyceum at Ole Miss
Designed by neoclassical architect William Nichols and constructed in 1848, it is the first and oldest building on campus. It originally contained classrooms, a lecture hall, faculty offices, a geological museum, and the library. Today, it houses the administrative offices.


The Kennon Observatory houses a Grubb Refractor telescope purchased in 1893 and
a CDK reflector telescope with an electronic CCD camera.
Grace says people just come and stare at the beauty of the copper domed structures.
It's like they are "observing the observatory."
