Comfort Inn & Suites Montgomery

... lamps of different shapes and design, fluffy new towels, and a beautiful window shade that looked like art.

When we arrived at the venue, we were greeted by the most fun crew we've had yet. These guys have worked our show several times, and were familiar with the whole deal. So, when the van arrived late due to a flat tire, they had already unloaded the truck and were half way set up. They were so ...

It was profoundly moving to be in Montgomery with the trolley and the many placards placed around the city, refreshing our recollection of this difficult time in our country's history. I am so glad Marney gave us one of the most memorable and educational experiences we've had in almost two years on the road.

That night, to top it all off, Marney made us dinner and had two of her ...

... and proposed tennis court land, to make herself and her kids a home.
Suzy keeps the house in the style of when she was raised there. Long halls, huge kitchen, formal and informal living rooms and dining areas The house reflects generations of family and love and life. Beautiful appointments with stories behind every piece. I especially loved getting the garden tour of her home. It is Suzy’s own rain forest jungle!! From the patio to the greenhouse and vegetable garden the ...

We arrived at Gunter Hill State Park in time to set up in the rain, eat dinner and fall asleep. The next day was rainy and cold as I did laundry, cleaned Crazy Fish and checked out the campgrounds. The sun peeked in and out as I took pix of the Alabama River right behind our site and got carried away with pictures of the Halloween ...

I dropped Luba off at the Savannah airport this morning at 5am. It was hard to see her off. We had the best time ever.

I had taken all side roads today all the way from Savannah. Traveled almost 600 miles before stopping for the day. I rode mostly on US 80 the entire day. I love riding on two lane roads. Its a great way to see the country side.

Stopped in Montgomery, Al. It just will not stop raining. Need a break. Waiting for the weather to ...

Believe it or not, there are 54 Championship Holes at the Capitol Hill Golf Course in Prattville, AL that are part of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. Jerry took the opportunity to get in a round of golf and was amazed at the beauty and pristinely maintained course.

While Jerry was hitting a small ball around Prattville, Alex & I spent some time in the pool to cool off. Bella used to jump into the pool to me when she was a puppy, but I couldn't ...

We left the Gulf Coast today and headed into Alabama to visit with Aunt Kathy and Uncle D. I used to live with Aunt Kathy and Uncle D in Florida. But I haven't been to visit then in Alabama for the last 5 years. What a great reunion.

My cousin Jackie cooked up some homemade lasagna and these ...

... cops can only use up north - probably because there are no exits given there is nothing to exit to) near the Georgia/Alabama border we hit small town centers that seem to follow the same pattern. Secondary highway enters the town square forming a roundabout encircling a small park or town hall encompassed by small outdated shops you would think were Hollywood movie sets for old westerns. I half expect the facades of the little ...

... came probably one inch from knocking one of our racers out, but praise god, no one was hurt, or even touched! Jason lifted me to the top of the roof where we worked on getting it down and we tried our best to fix it. We ended up having to tie it to the trailer, because the whole arm was broken!
