Just Walking In the Rain
Highlands Hammock state park. It's a jungle out there. Saw a herd of deer slogging thru the swamp, a fish hawk let us walk right past its roost, and Shannon turned a corner and squealed (!) in surprise as a wild pig scrambled away off the trail. Also, two fellow hikers had just seen a bear. A little one.
Thank goodness we have wifi here, otherwise the unrelenting rain over the past three days would bring on Cabin Fever. We were able to catch up on ABC's Nashville and Modern Family last night. Today was forecast to improve; hasn't yet.

On The Beach
Toured the Eudora Welty House today. What a treasure that dear woman was. Her bedroom was upstairs, the two windows to the right of the sign. It was there that she composed her major works.
Now we're down here on the Redneck Riviera, Orange Beach AL, basking under a full moon.

Texasville
Then on to Archer City TX, hometown of Larry McMurtry, author of many noted novels -- Last Picture Show, Terms of Endearment -- and winner of a Pulitzer for Lonesome Dove. Last year he auctioned off three warehouses full of his rare books; now Booked Up is down to only 150,000 volumes, of which these are but a few.
After a fun visit with friends near Ft worth we drove on to Vicksburg MS. That's M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I.
On The Road Again
Oh yes, we did! Cadillac Ranch, a bit west of Armadillo TX. Nowadays more spray paint than Cadillac.
