A few things I learned on my recent vacation

I recently took off a week to spend Thanksgiving with my family in Delaware. We took a few days to get up there and spent two coming back. Some of the things that I learned along the way,


Paula Deen's restaurant in Savanna has good fried chicken.


Do not walk the entire city of Savanna searching for the famous Bird Girl statue used in the book and movie titled Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. She is not there. Nor is she in the cemetery that is 15 minutes outside the city. She actually now resides in a museum. Ask before spending the entire day looking for her.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                In the south, it doesn't matter how lost you are or how far out in the middle of nowhere you are, there is always a decent barbecue place somewhere around.

South Carolina has cheap gas.


South of the border actually has pretty decent food. All these years I thought they only had cheap Pedro souvenir's.


I love the "Mutha"!!

Both the top AND the bottom of the earth are cold (thanks Greg for that lesson).


Speaking of cold, Delaware is cold towards the end of November.

 
I miss my Dad.


Jimmy Wharton still makes some darn good scrapple! 
                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                       
The traditional Thanksgiving foods are good but sitting down with family to share them is better.
