In a renovated 100-year-old cottage behind the Walter Anderson Museum of Art in Ocean Springs. Ms, a quaint new restaurant, The Traveler, stands ready for 4 hungry traveler friends who are visiting from Fairhope. The Traveler’s concept is inspired by Walter Anderson's adventurous spirit and his travels around the world. Almost everything at the restaurant, from furniture to native plantings to coffee cups, is artist-designed, curated, or made. 

I do have some regrets in life, and two of them are connected to an unforgettable evening in a hotel room in Vicksburg, Miss. What I mean is, I can't find the cassette tape of me playing music there with the blues legend Willie Dixon, or the handwritten lyrics he gave me as I was leaving.
