We just got back from taking Audrey home to Alabama. As is our custom, we HAVE to go to the beach while we are there (since it is so close). Here is a shot of Panama City beach from the pool of our hotel.
We also HAVE to go to Destin to a restaurant called "The Crab Trap" where we always pig out on, you guessed it - crab. YUM!!!
Here is a shot of the famous boll weavel monument in Enterprise, AL. It seems that when the weavels killed the cotton, in desperation the farmers planted peanuts, and the rest is history.
On the way back to MO. we stopped in Magnolia. This is the first LDS chapel in the Southern States Mission and is one of the few chapels with a cemetery. It was built in 1913, the year Neva's Dad was born and he spent five years as the Branch President here when Neva was a kid. Neva's parents and paternal grandparents are buried here so we stopped to pay our respects.
I was able to snap this picture through the window. Now in your minds eye, picture a 12 year old Neva Martin giving a 2 1/2 minute talk.
Neva's Mother
Neva's Father
Wish I could have gone!
