We started walking today at the intersection of Highways 82 and 25. Within a short time we were walking through Centreville, Alabama. The Cahaba River flows right through the center of Centreville, (maybe that is how it got it's name) with a business district on our right and one on our left. Therefore, we didn't see much of Centreville as we were walking down the center (of Centreville).
On we walked amongst Kudzu and pine trees. We are once again walking along the edge of the Talladega National Forest. Highway 82 has turned into a 2 lane road with a shoulder that is all of a foot wide. But traffic is light and when an oncoming car doesn't pull over for us, sometimes they can't, we just step into the grass.
Towards the end of our walk, we met a man probably in his mid 40's, walking on the same side of the road as us. He said he was going to Tuscaloosa and did I know of a store ahead. I told him the closest store was in Centreville. He seemed to think that was alright. He asked us where did we start walking and we replied, California. He asked when did we start and I told him it was a long story. I asked him if he needed water and he said he was OK. He seemed like a pleasant fellow and we saw him about 2 hours later when we passed him in our RV. He had almost gotten to Centreville. More about moving tomorrow.
Today we found .42 cents. Stay tuned ...
