ALABAMA!!

[rancher hicks]

Hi folks me again from Syracuse, NY.

So next month is our 35th and I asked DW if she wanted to go to Maine. We've never been. She said ok to that but then I got to thinking , dangerous I know, that perhaps she'd like to come and see you folks in AL again. We do have the family there and Lord knows if He said yes I've move there in a heart beat.

Well AL won out over Maine. She's already looking for places to visit. I do hope there are no hurricanes when we come. I'm sure the good Lord will spare us that.

Claudia if you read this I posted pics of the RIR's I got from you and the BBS orp hen. She looks real nice and I 've got some nice Blk roos to cross her with so I can get some blues. Can't thank you enough.

I was hoping to hear from you. Fairhope is where I told DW I wanted to go. When the time get closer you gotta tell me more. DW is good at planning places and what to see. That's one of the things I love about her.

Hey Rancher,

If you are going to stay in Fairhope, y'all could make a day trip to Mobile. The USS Alabama battleship is there.
You can also visit Fort Morgan or take the ferry across to Dauphin Island and visit Fort Gaines, if you like history,
that is.
Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are lovely that time of year and not that crowded after Labor Day. Good seafood there.

Have fun planning your trip, and welcome!

Thanks for the info. I'll pass it along to DW. My DS is Airforce so maybe he'll want to come with us. It sound fun.. Did I mention they are in Millbrook. I really like AL.

[Iwannachicken]

Millbrook is nice. Is DS at Maxwell AFB?

Thank him for his service for me, will you?

My nephew is Army, deployed in Afghanistan at the moment.

[rancher hicks]

Yes he is. Kinda got sent there by mistake. Nice mistake huh? If I could get the deal I usually get I'd be there every 6 wks. We have Skype with the GK's but it's not the same.

 

[Iwannachicken]

Haha, no I don't suppose it would be. Don't have any GK yet, myself.
Skype is really a wonderful tool tho. When I was a kid, I only got to talk
To my GP on the phone a couple of times a year and see them for two
weeks in the summer.
As for the DS getting to Maxwell by mistake, I'm all for happy accidents,
and I don't believe they are really accidents.

I'm in Toney (near Huntsville). Two Pekin ducks and I'm in love. I'm surprised that, being in the middle of nowhere, there would be more ducks! Well, huh.
