A is for Amory July 17, 2013

This post is for:
ABC Wednesday, Outdoor Wednesday, and Water World Wednesday
.
A is for Amory, Mississippi, USA.
Located in northeast Mississippi, Amory's population was 7,316 at the 2010 census.
.
Covered sidewalks along Main Street make shopping easy, rain or shine.
.
There are always flags along Main Street in celebration of various holidays.
This month's flags are for Independence Day.
.
Bill's Hamburgers are famous throughout the area.
.
Get your lunch 'to-go, carry-out' and enjoy it at McAlpine Lake.
This small lake near downtown Amory is very peaceful and relaxing to visit.
.
The highlight of the community's activities is the annual Railroad Festival at Frisco Park.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

  1. Seems like a nice town. Any town with a Lake close to downtown cannot be too bad.

  4. At first glance I thought Amory was a cargo or logistics company. Appropriate post for this week's letter.

    1. Hi Roger,
      I have made that mistake, too, more than once when reading someone's blog. Glad I included the photo of the name on the wall.
      Thanks for visiting!

  14. Looks like a lovely placed. Love the covered walkway, wonder why they don't have those anymore. Makes so much sense.
