Wed, Mar 29, KOA Tallahassee East to Birmingham South RV Park, Birmingham, AL:  A long driving day today. We left Tallahassee at 8:00, well let’s say 7:00 because we gained an hour and are now on Central Time (yay!). Stopped at a Flying J to fuel up and have breakfast. This Flying J is just west of Tallahassee, so I continued driving. I drove for 3 hours and then Mike took over. We got here at 2:30 and were set up by 3:00. A really nice day today, although this morning there was a dense fog alert in Tallahassee. Thought we’d be delayed leaving, but it lifted by the time we got to the Flying J, only to reveal cloudy skies. But skies cleared and it was really nice by the time we got to Birmingham. Unfortunately, the severe weather is supposed to roll through tonight or tomorrow morning. Not sure what we’ll do. Supposed to leave for W. Memphis. We’ll see. 84 today.

Beautiful Jupiter lighthouse.

This homeless dog was living in the landscaping around the Denny Restaurant at the Flying J in Tallahassee. Denny's employees kept food and water outside for him. He wouldn't let anyone near him. So he couldn't be caught. Apparently, someone dumped him there and he was waiting for them to come back (sigh).

When we were in having breakfast this morning I asked the waitress if they'd seen the dog lately. She said they hadn't seen him in a couple of years. Hope someone gave him a home. Wishful thinking probably.
