The Rest of the Way


Well, Sunday I headed out of the Nashville area but didn't make it far before seeing a sign for the Jack Daniel's distillary. So of course I decided to go. I didn't realize how far off the road it was though. A quick detour turned into about 3 hours. It was fun though. It would have been better if I hadn't seen a show about how to distill whiskey on tv already, but it was cool to see it in person. We didn't get any samples at the end though :( It was Sunday and its a dry county. I guess they usually let them sell bottles on site, but on Sundays even they can't sell it.

So I got back on the road and drove to just past Atlanta before stopping for the night. The next day I headed down to Falorida. I thought I was pretty close, but it turned out that I was about 150 miles from the border. At the welcome center they give out free orange juice, but I didn't stop for any. The drive was pretty uneventful. Besides the crazy noise my car continues to make. I have to take it somewhere and have it looked at.

So I checked into the hotel and then went further down the road to see what was up. Well, nothing was up. It seems pretty boring here. But there is a brochure for diving with manatees in the room, so I'm going to dive while I'm down here. I'm gonna see if anyone else wants to go, but if not I'll go by myself. No reason to waste all that money on the lessons if I don't get when I get the opportunity :)

Then today we went out to work, but where we were suppose to start they didn't want to let us dig to the depth that we need to. So we called it a morning and will try again tomorrow. Then it rained for awhile while we were at the store buying tennis raquets, but it seems to have stopped now. So I'll probably make people play tennis with me for awhile. Woo, tennis!
