Sweet Home Alabama

Sweet Home, Alabama

Pretty and the old woman Slow got a much later start to their odyssey on Tuesday night because Pretty’s family came on New Year’s Day to have Christmas.  That’s kinda the way Pretty’s family is.  When they finished with their gifts, they loaded up The Red Man and Spike and took off for Texas.  It rained almost the whole 980 miles from Casa de Canterbury to Worsham Street.  They all arrived safely very late Wednesday night, but Tuesday night they stayed outside of Birmingham, Alabama and Wednesday morning they took a little side trip to Eutaw, which is south of Interstate 20.   Pretty and Slow love a small town.

Eutaw has a Town Square which is great for Pretty to walk Spike and Red

Christmas tree coming down or low budget for tree trimming in 2012?

I-20 bypassed Eutaw…

Oh, no…not open until 1.  Pretty was disappointed.

Slow found a cemetery which she loves as much as Pretty loves an antique store

A Memorial for the Confederate Soldiers  from the area was the centerpiece
