Wednesday, October 19




We had a chilly start this morning. It turned cold and a bit windy with a possibility of rain. It didn't rain, but was cloudy and chilly.
 
The first 6 miles were void of buildings. No houses, barns or sheds. We are walking in the country. The first building that we did see was a gas station, Closed!
 
We came to a historical marker. The marker noted the a certain Mr. Elias M. Keils was a scalawag and a judge of the city court of Eufaula. Not sure about the definition of "scalawag", I consulted Dr.Google. Seems a scalawag was a white southerner who supported Union reconstruction laws. And added, "usually for selfish reasons"
 
Up ahead, we walked right under a pecan tree. I gathered up 4, while John got a pocket full. The pecans were a good snack.
 
Ruth and Carol were waiting at the Heritage Sod Farm. 12 miles and we found .01 cent. Stay tuned ...
