Things to do this Halloween

-

 Living in South Mississippi provides many opportunities to see unique things.  Halloween is just 3 months away, so start planning ahead on what you want to do to take advantage of the area.  I'm going to list a few suggestions, but watch the events section of the newspapers (Stone County Enterprise, Sun Herald) or events on Facebook for more ideas.  I am not paid by any of these suggestions.

One idea is the Historic Ghost Cemetery Walking Pub Crawl of Bay St Louis by Mystic Ghost Riders.  This walking tour runs daily except Monday and Tuesday, but I think it would be great to do around Halloween.  It is $29 per adult.  It is a guided walk and you can enjoy drinks if you choose to.  Some of the stops include the Train Depot, The Cedar Rest Cemetery, Century Hall, and the Hancock County Courthouse.  Tour starts at the Blind Tiger in Bay St Louis.  For more information go to https://mysticghostrides.com/ghost-tours/ghost-and-cemetery-pub-walk/ 

Another idea is the Witches Ride of Ocean Springs on Saturday October 26th at 5:30 pm.  Line the streets in downtown Ocean Springs for this family friendly event.  Watch the witches fly threw while they toss candy to the crowds.  Witches Ride is a local non-profit focused on raising fund for local animal welfare organizations.  Check the Facebook events section for more information.

Next idea is Williams Family Farms in Stone County (Big Level).   They will open for the season on Saturday October 5th and close on November 3rd.  Saturday hours are 10-9, Sundays 1-5 and weekdays are reserved for school groups.  They have a maze and Saturday nights participants will use a flashlight to navigate.  There will also be entertainment on Saturday nights.  The Pumpkin Pie Festival will be on Saturday October 19th. There is also a general store where you can buy homemade apple butter and many other items.  Check them out on Facebook at Williams Family Farms.  

My last idea is a 5k run.  Get out and get some cool October air on Saturday, October 26th for the Bay St Louis Cult Classic 5k.  Runners are encouraged to dress as "your most beloved cult classic movie character".  So, lace up those shoes and get moving.  Try couch to 5k to get you ready.  There is still time.  Sign up at runsignup.com

I know there are many more great events in our beautiful state.  Comment and share some of your favorites.

If you plan on looking at real estate from this date forward, you will need to sign a written agreement with agents before we can show you any property.  This isn't isolated to one office.  This is nationwide.  The only agents who are exempt are those who are not members of the National Association of Realtors, which is not that many if they are using the MLS to list homes and find homes.

 Last week I shared some properties on the lower end of the scale.  Today, I'm going to share some of the properties at the top end of the list in Stone County.  Again, these are not my listings.  I'm just sharing some of what Stone County has to offer. This beautiful home (41 C G Evans Rd) at  is being offered for $650,000 and it sits off Hwy 49 on the west side just south of Pearl River Valley Electric.  It sits on 4.65 acres.  It is 4,089 square feet and has 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths and a large covered back porch. There is also a 2 car attached carport. The 3 car garage is 1,124 square feet that are heated and cooled.  Even more space is available with the 1,023 square foot shop.  The kitchen is gorgeous and there are high ceilings throughout.  Need 800 acres?  For $2,990,000 (and that is just $3,737.50/acre) you get approximately 800 acres of gently rolling to level property in Big Level.  Over 3,000 feet of frontage road o...
