Sweet Home Alabama-Farewell

Today is our last day in Alabama and the weather is cold (40 deg), windy and rainy.  More rain is predicted for overnight and tomorrow so we packed up all the outdoor stuff today before it got wet.  So, we didn't get a chance to take the canoes out again.

Deflating and packing them up today, we discovered that getting them back in their bags was sorta like getting into last year's jeans.  A lot of huffing and puffing and squeezing and a moment of triumph when it closed.  Hopefully it will get easier as we get more practiced and the weather is warmer.  (yes, we did deflate them first)

We had a nice evening with my college roommate and her husband.  It's been a lot of fun to have a local to guide us and we always did have a lot of laughs which hasn't changed.

Tomorrow we start the next leg of the trip.  Since we'll be hitting Texas during Spring Break we actually made reservations for the next month or so.  If you want to find us we'll be in Mississippi for 2 nights, Louisiana for one night, Matagorda, TX, Port O'Connor TX, Port Aransas, TX, San Antonio, Blanco and Kerrville, TX.  Then we start to head for home.  Please have all the snow melted by then.
