Well folks it almost over. One more night on the road. Tomorrow I
meet up with James in Selma, AL and drop off a few items then the
final push back to the Atlanta area begins. It's just a "short" three
hour drive from Montgomery to Atlanta up I-85 so I should be back in
Stone Mountain late tomorrow afternoon.
Today involved the magic sled/trailer driven by Santa Steve visiting
the QTH of Jonathan just north of Huntsville and dropping the M28 KSR
from Dr House down Jonathan's chimney (not literally of course!). But
you would have thought Santa had really shown up to see the smile on
Jonathan's face when we uncovered that baby to transport it into his
shack. I'm sure we'll soon see one or more of the photos he has taken
of his new toy!
On the drive from Jonathan's to where we have stopped for the night we
saw just a small bit of the damage done by the tornadoes that ripped
through this area back in April. We actually filled the gas tank at a
fuel stop right next to one of the motels I had seen on the news that
was totally destroyed. And at the interchange on the interstate at
that exit there were several of the very tall light pole they use to
light busy interchanges that were down. One of them was still upright
half way up, but was bent in half such that the light cluster that is
normally at the top was within just a foot or two of the ground but
still attached to the pole.
That's it for tonight, but I won't promise I'll do the final edition
tomorrow night. Might be Thursday or Friday before I surface again!
I hope you have enjoyed the trip as much as my wife, Puddin, and I
have. It has been a blast, especially meeting all the fine folks from
the Greenkeys list along the way.
