They stopped eating their young in Alabama, so you don’t have to worry about THAT anymore.
Where I live is gorgeous, full of crape myrtles in bloom along with magnolias and live oaks with sweeping Spanish moss. The people are lovely; there truly is a thing called southern hospitality. We are allowed to have chickens in our backyard here so I’m thinking of buying that Rhode Island Red I see wandering around the hardware store.
I never saw Hamilton so I don’t feel I’m missing anything. And I wouldn’t step foot in a Cracker Barrel when we have so many places in this city that serve real soul food and southern staples in a down home style that can truly be described using the word “rustic”.
But we have a beautiful, revitalized downtown situated on a bend in the river where you can get decent Italian food, good pizza and gyros. We are on the Civil Rights trail so we have lots of museums, 1 art museum and 1 literary outposting dedicated to a famed writer. I volunteer in several of these museums.
I love NYC and will return for visits because my family lives there. But I’m perfectly happy in a state that just outlawed abortion. The governor lives about 4 blocks from my house.
Alabama is starting to look really good. An older guy stopped at my barn sale last week and went on and on about Gulf Shores, Alabama. He and his wife winter there - cheap. I went online and looked around, many nice looking rentals for about half the price of Florida, and most right on the beach.
Wow, sounds absolutely wonderful!
Good for you!
Will you get involved in local, community theatre?
See ya’,
