Did you ever swim at Spur Six, between Hattiesburg and Purvis?

My grandmother would take us there during the summer, but she ruined it for me one year but throwing a big rock in before she let us swim.

I’m not sure.....I don’t recall to be honest

We had friends in Laurel and would go to a swimming lake that had a beach and a pier and several high dives and most importantly a tower dive that went up to over 100 foot for exhibitions pro divers

I went up to 72 foot with my tennis shoes on and about killed myself ..hurt bad

I did the strong river a lot....went to camp Mondamin as a kid and canoed the river later as an adult

Did the homochitto and the tickfaw too

We had a lake cabin at lake Bruin Louisiana and I spent most summers there.....the best

With my cousins...
