Wed, Mar 29, 2023:  Dothan, AL, to New Albany, MS:  A beautiful travel day today.  It was 50 when we left Dothan under beautiful sunny skies.  Continued north on Rt. 231 which is a four-lane, limited-access highway.  At Montgomery we continued on I65 to Birmingham and then west on I22.  They actually resurfaced some of I65 through Birmingham.  Big improvement!  When we got to the Mississippi line we stopped at the rest area/welcome center.  What a pretty place.  Dogwood trees were blooming and it was a pleasant 67 degrees.  Inside the welcome center was full of antiques.  They had a parlor set up with settees, chairs, and an old organ.  Very nice.  Hung around there for a while and then continued on.  We left Dothan at 8:00 and were in New Albany at a little before 3:00.  Tomorrow we leave for home.  Expecting bad weather on Friday.  So we lucked out this year—except for an hour or two of downpours in Alabama.
