Scenes From Vacation: Tuesday

So I can’t quite figure out exactly what we did today as I have been fighting a stellar headache for most of my waking hours. For some details on the vacation you will have to run over to my wife’s site over here. I like the idea of only picking a picture or two from our travels. It makes you beg for more…hello?…is anyone out there? Oh well.

Try to keep up. We started in Lewisburg. We drove to Columbia. We drove back to Lewisburg. We drove to Cornersville. We drove to some random town in Alabama. We drove to Lynnville. We drove to Mooresville. We drove back to Lewisburg. It would have been quicker and easier to just straight through to crazy!

After having recent finished reading The Right Stuff I was extra thrilled to drive to the Alabama Welcome Center just to get out and stare at their enormous feat of technology.

At this same rest stop they have a replica of Washington’s Vietnam Memorial but for Alabama’s brave soldiers that never made it home from that war. I wonder if my uncle from New Hampshire (he will be dubbed…man I bet he will hate this…Uncle Sgt. Slaughter! lol) had any idea that he is listed on the wall. No one tell him as I bet it will piss him off to know that he died fighting in the war as a child from Alabama.

Anyway, the afternoon pretty much ended up in Lynnville. They have this pretty nifty (okay, incredibly tiny) railroad museum.

One more thing: Is it me or does everyone find these obscure backroads that turn dark when you go down them to be creepy and only missing banjo music to complete the scene?

I am home now and doing my best to fight this headache (the Labatt’s and Stella Artois don’t seem to be working fast enough) and decide what adventures may come our way tomorrow. I think a trip to Nash-vegas may be in store. Maybe I will see you there.
