We headed out for the Florida border and some warmer
weather. There was still thick ice on the top of the RV and it started coming
off once we hit the interstate, so we pulled over and cleaned it off. It would
have been hazardous for people driving behind.
On the highway there were signs advertising a local farmers
market. One of the items highlighted was Frog Jelly. We thought “surely it must
not be actual frog”, but then remembered we were in Alabama… So who knows?
We passed the showgrounds where the national peanut festival
is held. They had a “big peanut” but we were doing 70 miles an hour and whipped
past before Ros could grab the camera out.
The woods of Alabama were much like parts of Louisiana,
trees wreathed in grey spanish moss.
We were driving behind a pickup truck with a very patriotic
paint job. God. Guns. Country. Probably in that order.
Over the border into Florida, the sunshine state and the
weather picked up almost straight away. The woods started to have palm trees in
them. We pulled in for the night at Tallahassee, and a lovely quiet little RV
park. We had a walk to the nearest shop for some nice nibbles, and celebrated
our anniversary.
