Day 37-Gadsden, AL
Got up the next day, washed the truck and ALL of Jasons clothes to get the smell of hot springs sulpher water out. Glen is kindly letting us store some stuff in his barn so we will travel lighter as we end the trip and figure out our next adventure/ zip code.


Felicia made us breakfast, a perfect welcome back to the south with bacon, biscuits and homemade preserves. Jason took me to the beautiful Naccaloola Falls and we hiked with Fern for about an hour or so. We then went to see Glen’s performance in “A Walk Back in Time”, an annual event in which living locals reenact as notable no longer living cemetary patrons and tell highlights of their lives to onlookers. It was the hands down most enjoyable way to hear true stories of the dearly departed, Glen and everyone we watched did a great job and we would have liked to have seen more.
From there we met up with Felicia (who had been hosting a friend’s baby shower) at Top o’ the River Catfish House for delicious fried catfish, greens, cornbread, fried pickles, hush puppies, onion rings and- God Bless the South- sweet iced tea. We then went back to their house to exercise our digestive tracts on their comfy recliner couches. We laughed and talked and watched the Braves beat the Dodgers in an exciting close game. We watched the game with volume off so we could talk. Nobody needs announcers with Jason and Glen in the room- they provide all the enthusiasm needed 😁. It was a beautiful day and night with loved ones.
