2009 Day 154 Southern Trip Begins


June 5 I started the morning early, in the pouring rain, cleaning my fish pond pump. Then I sat in traffic forever before finally heading toward Atlanta, about 1.5 hours later than planned. After picking up Tony around lunchtime, we drove to Auburn where we added my nephew Michael to our carload, and finally arrived in St. Elmo in time for a Shrimp Feast.

We had boiled shrimp from the boat, George's famous french fries, and fresh corn on the cob. Like in my childhood, we simply put newspaper on the table and dove in. What a meal!! Family, good memories, and delicious food--it doesn't get much better than that.
