\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and MS 365, Burnsville<\/p>\n

Reassurance shield after the Highway 365 junction as we head out of Burnsville.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 264, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

As we leave Burnsville, we’ll enter Alcorn County, which very liberally signs its county routes using a slightly off-spec shield.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 262, Glen<\/p>\n

Shortly thereafter, we’ll enter Glen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 300, Glen<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 300.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 262, Glen<\/p>\n

Still in Glen, turn right for CR 262.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 263, Glen<\/p>\n

Also in Glen, turn right for CR 263 according to this badass sign.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 309, Glen<\/p>\n

Glen has a lot of county roads for an incorporated city.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 308.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 307, Glen<\/p>\n

Here’s another one!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 371, Glen<\/p>\n

And another, as we head out of Glen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 306, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

Shortly thereafter, we’ll come to a light – the first light on US-72 since Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Turn right for CR 218 and left for CR 306.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 278, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

Turn right for CR 278 just after the light.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 278, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

Reassurance shield after the light.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 305.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 286, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

Uh…this sign used to read “370” but somebody appears to have painted the proper “286” right over it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 304, Alcorn Cty<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 304.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 303, Corinth<\/p>\n

Just after that, we’ll enter Corinth, a Certified Retirement Community, where we are greeted by some Corinthian columns, because why not?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and CR 303, Corinth<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 303.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Kimberly Clark Pkwy, Corinth<\/p>\n

Turn right for CR 206\/Kimberly Clark Pkwy. I like these shields with the arrows in them – nice throwback.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Oakland School Rd, Corinth<\/p>\n

Turn right for CR 267.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Waukomis Lake Rd, Corinth<\/p>\n

As we get into the part of town with people in it, we’ll approach CR 301.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Salem Rd, Corinth<\/p>\n

Turn left for CR 400.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Cass St, Corinth<\/p>\n

At the light, we’ll approach MS 785, which spurs into downtown Corinth.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Cass St, Corinth<\/p>\n

Junction MS 785 coming up at the light.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Cass St, Corinth<\/p>\n

As already noted, 785 heads into downtown.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Location<\/strong>: US-72 and Cass St, Corinth<\/p>\n

Keep right for 785 north.<\/p>\n
