Post-Turkey Day Stuff

On the Bridge
I drove home yesterday in food-induced stupor. Why is that all the good things have to be so bad for you? Tryptophan-laden turkey, buttery mashed potatoes, salty cornbread stuffing, and the syrupy-goodness that is pecan pie. I was beat when I got home after the three-hour drive, but it did give me a chance to unwind in a sense. While I love visiting family, I love sleeping in my own bed more.

On Wednesday, I did run about town and take a few photos. The bridge above is an old bridge from the turn of the 20th century. My grandfather played on it as a child and the town restored and preserved it as a pedestrian bridge this past year. It's one of the more pleasant changes about town.

I'm not so sure about this museum that will be opening soon though. I think this used to be a small grocery and suspect the mummies may be made from left over store manikins and two-ply Charmin.

On a historical maintenance note, I was chatting on my laptop for a bit on Wednesday in the town library. While there, the dancer guy from this entry was there, sitting at a table across the way. I'm not sure if he recognized me or not, but the dragon tattoo on his forehead that I noted last summer is still there. I guess it's not temporary. Wow...

Did I mention that it's really good to be home?

That's a really nice photo of you on the bridge! I'm glad you had a nice Thanksgiving at home. I'm from a small town; it's nice to visit, but equally nice to acknowledge the changes and return home.

Hugs!

Thanks! I often get away for a bit when I visit back home.
