back in cool weather
We are near Birmingham AL this morning and it is much cooler than in the TX desert!! If my sleepy eyes see right this morning it is 49.
We are about 2 1/2 hours from Peach Tree City GA and will arrive there in time for Terry to enjoy her favorite "fish taco" meal at a small cafe named grinds and wine. Will spend until Sunday there and then off on the road again but this time headed in the direction of Naples. Today marks the day 26 on our trip and maybe for the first time yesterday, as I sat in the car speeding towards our camp site, I thought maybe it would be good to be home in our own bed and using our own toilet!
For the first time in several nights we had a fire ring at our camp site and it was great fun to have a fire again. Actually we burned the last of our lumber we brought with us. Six bags lasted us about 20 nights but when you count the times we had no fire ring, well we probably got 6 or 7 fires out of the wood. I got the wood by cleaning up my wood shop so it was a double delight, clean shop and nice fires. Almost sounds like that could be a delicious coffee drink!
The pictures: The wood stair case was built in the 1700's and has no nails or screws. A beautiful piece of woodwork. The desk and trunk are in Teddy Roosevelt's cabin in Medora ND. Much of his writing was done at that desk.
Oh my, the FP warms my insides but I had to take my gloves off to type so my fingers are COLD. My FP is not done but my fiingers are.
