The article I read didn’t say specifically when they closed but said that even after a cure was found in the 1940’s, many patients were still kept confined for decades after that. It also said that there are still a few patients that are in their 90s living there today that went there as children. Very Interesting!

The photo in that link is from the overlook. Looks like it didn’t change much. I think we were there I 96.

Yeah, I'm learning that. I never thought I'd be going to Mississippi, but when there's only 6 colleges in the nation with a poultry department... well, I guess I'll learn to survive. I must say though, it is absolutely beautiful there in March!

Ok, I’m going to take a crack at your obscure reference. Here’s my guess:

Armadillos are known for having leprosy and even spreading it to humans. I believe that the island of Molokai used to be a leper colony. So, eating the leper’s lunch special could get you a one way trip to Molokai.

Am I correct or (somewhat close)?

Very good!
