Camp Freightliner

 No pictures for two days of training because we were being schooled!  Dennis learned more than I did because 1) he understood it all and 2) he does the driving. I gleaned somethings. Virtual zoom training is not as good as in person, but our trainer did a good job of relating to everyone. We even received insulated cups, t-shirts, and a cap for Dennis. Not to mention all the delicious meals we had.  

Tomorrow we head to our home base.

 Couldn’t be more happy to have my Yankee RV winter jacket! Visitors center displays Union, Confederate and women equally in accounts of the first major battle of the Civil War. Well done.  Dennis kept trying to compare his silhouette to Grant as he is a distant relative on his grandmother’s side. Maybe the nose. Our auto tour of the battlefield was like a scavenger hunt through history. 160 years ago a war took place.  This battlefield covers three days of the worse and bloodiest battle of the Civil War that lasted 4 years. Interesting fact, General Albert Sidney Johnston, Confederate commander, led 4,400 men against U.S. Grant.  He was the highest ranking officer killed in combat during the Civil War and remains the highest American officer ever killed in action.

 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.

Alabaster, Alabama, 4-7-22

 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.
