Ole Miss grew, and Oxford grew, and so in turn did the airport. And in doing so Oxford lost a beautiful spot near the intersection of College Hill Road and Old Sardis Road… the cypress scenery. As a kid, Dad pointed it out to me and I stayed glued to the car window as we rode by. Later, to know it was gone, I thought of Dad.
