Just dropped in to tell you. I went up to Homewood the last two days. I had lunch at O'Carrs and it's very good. I hope if you're up that way you stop in. They're very nice. I also went to the White Flower shop. She's also very nice and I did spend a bit there for Christmas. I also bought myself some things at the Twiggy Vine shop. My original draw was Sweet Peas garden shop. They have some nice chicken things and just stuff I like. I get their e-mails and wanted to see what was new.
Now I had gone up there today a second time in two days, due to the Homewood Website. I have to tell you the so called Holiday, 11/8, thing was a big let down. While the newspaper said there would be a trolley to take folks to other places in the area there was no such thing. I did see a trolley but it was not stopping to pick people up. The website shows all these tents and lots of people and that is just not so. I intend to contact the Commerce department and give them a piece of my mind. I drove an hour and a half one way just to go.
One funny thing is when I ran into someone in the shops who was not friendly, they were transplants to Alabama. Not true Southerners. Some were nice but others not so. I still love Alabama though.
Just the same please stop into the places I mentioned. The folks there are very nice.
