... fun. After the show, we went to lunch with the crew at the wonderful hometown restaurant next door called Lunde's. They stayed open past their normal lunch hours just for us. I had a fried catfish po'boy, and was full for the rest of the day. The guys then invited us to their house this Saturday on our drive up to Decatur, AL from New Orleans. We'll see if we make it, but I bet it would be fun if we do.<br>

... tour. We saw a historical movie, his study, a mural (that we weren't allowed to photograph) and the pulpit where he preached from. While it felt a bit irreverent, we were welcomed to stand at his pulpit and look out over the pews, as he once did. Wow....what a chill went up my spine when I stood there, put my hands on the sides of the podium, and looked out.<br> <br>Next, we went over to the Southern Poverty Law Center and looked ...

... and proposed tennis court land, to make herself and her kids a home. <br> 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&#8217;s own rain forest jungle!! From the patio to the greenhouse and vegetable garden the ...

... s house visitng her Uncle while a young girl. The house had changed hands over the years but had not been kept up with the times. When Marney heard it was to come on the market, she bought it and dove right in to make it fit her lifestyle. Marney changed walls and location of rooms and has given this wonderful old homestead a new lease on life. The workmanship is wonderful as it is clever in design and function. Reflecting her sense of color and the marrying ...

... More later..<br><br>Once in Montgomery I decided to take a ride through town. I'm glad I did. I visited the state capital and the church that Martin Luther King preached at. More importantly that same church was the meeting point for many of the rallies in support of the the bus boycott which was sparked by Rosa Parks. I also visited the Rosa Parks museum and the spot where the bus bench sat.<br><br>I also rode by the first white house the Jefferson ...

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.<br><br>While Jerry was hitting a small ball around Prattville, Alex &amp; 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 ...

... to say hello and ask us what we're doing here. Lots of southern camaraderie (and accent) then he introduced us to his gal, Miss Elsie. I thought maybe I should bow. The restaurant (or hall for dining) was near closing but they let us sit - not many Northerners come around and they're curious. Of the meal, the Fried Pickles, Onion Rings with cheese and Sweet Potato Fries were very good. Moby's was wrapping up a baby shower when ...

... location (don't ask us what its original location was exactly), opposite the state capitol building in downtown Montgomery. Worth a quick look, while you are here, although the self-guided tour (i.e. brochure to read as you walk through the house) focusses mainly on who donated which piece of furniture to the display. Just two blocks down the road - but don't worry, when the lady at the "white house" pointed us in the right ...

... origin all over the road (spilled beer, for example, but recall earlier comments about people throwing up on themselves- and I was wearing sandals). That smell, coupled with unidentified flying objects coming off of balconies, fights breaking out and my fear of attack from Harry's compadres, led me to my room!
