Our kids have firm closing dates for the house they selling and the one they are buying. We are needing to get ourselves to Georgia so we can help them out on moving day. So today we are going to cut our distance in half between where we are and our destination in Georgia. This will land us in Cottondale, Alabama for the night. No sight-seeing to do but we will probably sample the local fare instead of cooking for ourselves.
We've been sampling the local fare a lot lately and it is taking its toll. Shirts are tight, pants won't button. We're going to have to get our eating back on plan or it won't be long before nothing but sweatpants will fit.
We are coming up on the end of September and it is still hot. Luckily our campground for tonight (Sunset Travel Park) is another one with good power. Both A/Cs are going full blast trying to keep things cool. This summer has been one for the books, everywhere we have been all summer long local record high temperatures were being broken every day. We are not ones to want to rush into winter but this year's heat does have us fondly thinking of temperatures that require coats.
The little berg of Cottondale is an unincorporated community southwest of Birmingham, Al. Its reason for existence is the cotton mill. Just not much here except for our campground. We're turning in early with our anticipation of getting to Georgia tomorrow and seeing the kids.
