I was on vacation last week. I had a family reunion in Indiana. I visited relatives in Illinois and my Sis in Sparta Tennessee, about ten miles above Sparta, way up in the mountains in the middle of nowhere there is a graveyard where my dad and a lot of family are buried. Sis took us up there to see Dads headstone. We had not been there since the funeral . We get out of the car and up the hill there was a flock of turkeys about 30 birds. I got a couple of pics but it doesn't show how enormous this flock was. Any way I thought it was really cool that they where there.

Going on vacation next week,going to visit Tucson AR,Grand Canyon,Las Vegas and Area 51.Thought while I was down that far I would go across into Mexico and maybe shop.Whats the deal about ID etc.I dont want to drive across but walk,and park on this side.Are there proper parking areas,the reason I ask is because we will be camping and the car will be loaded and I normally take a rifle or two play with while I am away so I certainly dont want to get ripped off in a bad part of town.Any one know the best places to cross,I would lik to cross as close to Tucson as possible.

Billy Bob and Luther were talking one afternoon when Billy Bob tells Luther,
"Ya know, I reckon I'm 'bout ready for a vacation. Only this year I'm gonna do it a little different. The last few years, I took your advice about where to go. Three years ago you said to go to Hawaii. I went to Hawaii and Earlene got pregnant. Then two years ago, you told me to go to the Bahamas, and Earlene got pregnant again. Last year you suggested Tahiti and darned if Earlene didn't get pregnant again."
Luther asks Billy Bob, "So, what you gonna do this year that's different?"
Billy Bob says, "This year I'm taking Earlene with me."0 -

Places I can recommend from past experience:
The Pink Pony Pub
The Flora-Bama Bar & Lounge (nearest place to buy Florida Lotto tickets.
Now it has been over 10 years since I have been to either place.
Third, if you haven't already seen it, The Naval Aviation Museum at NAS Pensacola. (leave the shotgun at the condo!!!)
Also, if you get a chance Battleship Park, Mobile. Tour the USS Alabama and the submarine Drum, plus all the other neat stuff in the park. Planes, displays. Last time I was there, they were just finishing up on the SR-71 for display.
Hope you enjoy your trip.0 -
