March 7, 2007 haven't written for 5 days, boy time flies by fast, now I have catching up to do again. I mentioned before that we were in Montgomery Alabama, while there we drove into town and took a trolley ride around which showed the highlights of what is there that they are famous for. We didn't get into town until 4 so we couldn't get off the trolley and go see anything because it was too late. Normally what you do is pay your $1.00 and you can get on and off the trolley all day long. (yes that was one dollar) We went by the State Capitol, Rosa Parks Library and Museum, Hank Williams Museum, Alabama Dept. of Archives and History, Civil Rights Memorial ect. next time in town we will have to do the all day thing.
Saturday morning, March 3 we got headed for Stone Mountain, Georgia which is a beautiful place right outside of Atlanta. If you get a chance look up their website stonemountainpark.com/campground you should see all the stuff they have to do here, the only thing is come the right time of year. Of course we aren't and all but 3 things are closed until near the end of March and we will be long gone by then. Valley and I are doing a lot of walking and stocking squirrels. We arrived on Saturday and once all set-up we drove into Atlanta and went shopping at Costco. On Sunday we drove back into Atlanta and did a tour of the "World of Coca'Cola" what a waste of money on that one. Then we walked thru the "Underground" in Atlanta which is a bunch of shops right underneath the highway then under that is Kenny's Alley which is the entertainment district at night. We were there during the day, David Jr. said we should really go at night because it is really the happening place but knowing us I know we won't make it. After that we walked over and did a tour of CNN, now that was worth the money. Monday, we hung around drove into Stone Mountain, the city, and did laundry. Last night we drove into Atlanta and had dinner with Dave's second cousin, Randy and his family. We had a very nice dinner and it was a great visit, the only thing is while driving back home I hit a dog, we don't know how bad because it took off running. I was only driving 20 mph, we had just left their house and I hit the brakes so hopefully it wasn't hurt too bad. Damn people that don't train their dogs not to run once they get out of the house, that dog ran so fast in front of the car, I was just sick over it and still am. When we got back to the coach all I did was hold onto Valley and thanked god that I had taken the time to train her.
Enough bad news, today it is 71 degrees and beautiful, and now I'm all caught up on my blog, so see ya!
