Had an uneventful, albeit slightly long for us, trip from Tuscaloosa to Tallahassee today. Got here in time to say goodnight to the grand children then back to the fifth wheel to finish up.
We finally caught up with Fall colors, or I guess you could say they caught us. The Washburne estate on the lake was looking mighty fine with perfect weather. Of course there was the usual fine food and conversation.
We put up the front porch swing; now to paint the chain.
Downtown Tuscaloosa took an awesome hit when the tornadoes ripped through this spring. There is still lots of clean up to do, let alone rebuilding.
I hope the sign rings true.
So now we have a few weeks to soak up family and tend to the fifth wheel. It could use some cleaning after bug smashing our way over the last five thousand plus miles.
Stay warm.
