I been to Alabama................

Seems as though there is a song in there somewhere, but I can't remember where.

So I should begin by telling you that unlike Sherman we didn't burn our way across the South, we decided to eat our way. Outside Atlanta we found this eatery, very similar to Five Guys in quality, huge servings of fries, and extreme courtesy. Would you like a refill on that drink sir? Care for some more fries? Want to try one of our apple pie samples? They must be in cahoots with the cardiac center at WakeMed. Very fine, if you have the means I recommend it heartily

Business has been improving all year, but with a freshman in college it looks like we're having to do a few other things to improve cash flow around the house................a special thanks to TAR for going the extra mile! This from the hood in Atlanta; yes Jackson, Daddy works in bad neighborhoods. Unfortunately we had already eaten when we found this near a distributor in Mobile, AL. They were cooking pork over coals when we came by late in the afternoon; yes Jackson, Daddy works in bad neighborhoods.
No you're not, I am the Stig!

Last but not least, one of my favorite pictures of this couple; AND yes, the faces were cropped to protect the innocent even though the perpetrator was not innocent when caught doing this. He always makes me smile; know who this is?

Packing up tonight, leaving for the annual AHRI (www.ahrinet.org) meeting in Phoenix. Found out this week that I have to present our section's report to the board meeting Sunday morning. Staying at the Phoenician in Scottsdale, really helps make up for the Hindu hotels I have to stay in waaaaaaay too often. Hope TAR wants to go to Barrett-Jackson.
