 All settled in Tiffin territory. A little chilly here today. Staying at 1st Class Glass waiting till Monday to have Tiffin people come and evaluate our to-do list. Went to lunch at Cole’s BBQ across the border in Mississippi. Small hole in the wall place on a tight corner. Great pulled por, fried green tomatoes and pickles.  Picked up some supplies from the Ace hardware store inside a Piggily Wiggly. We are in northern Alabama for sure   Visited the Allegro Club back in Red Bay and learned about some interesting spots to visit this weekend.

 Today we drove under beautiful skies. Stopped to fill up with gas from Flying J. 57 gallons, &298.00. Yikes! Using Harvest Host at Siluria Brewing Co.  we parked and waited for the brew house to open. I ordered Lady Grace (an amber wheat) and Dennis a stout. We even picked up two long sleeve shirts and dinner from a local food truck, Dock of the Bay, and watched the Masters on TV.  We met and chatted with two other traveling couples. One from St. Pete and the other from Washington state. Neat stories shared.  Gregg was our server. When we first came in the place was empty but now3 hours later it is packed!  Good brew and friendly crowd. Dogs are even welcome on leash. All in all an enjoyable evening.
