Where I'm from Part 2

So I'm going to  tell you about where I'm really from! I live in Scottsboro, AL but I was raised in a community called Macedonia. Its so small, we don't even have a post office! So if you look up Macedonia, AL on the map, you probably won't find it. The address is actually Section, AL.

This is the highway driving from my house to my parents'. They stil live where I was raised--since I was 5 years old!

Its a really nice drive--just look at the views! I especially love it in the fall. When I was 18 I moved out of the country for about a  year & a half. (What was I thinking?) I came home in the fall when all the leaves were changing and I had never realized how beautiful it really is here! Since then I have loved to see the leaves change--it always reminds me of how happy I was to be back home in Alabama!

Almost home....my Momma nick-named these curves "Mason's Curves" because an old man named Mason lived on the right, right on the curves! The name stuck--we still call them that. (So sad, Mason and his house are both gone....he had an old timey house and pigs out back!)

 

This is Salem Church--a primitive Baptist church. It hasn't changed much at all! Until recently they didn't even have an indoor bathroom. That addition on the front hasn't been there long and has a bathroom. Not long ago they hired husband put carpet in there. I hated to see it change--it had the best old, primitive, creaky floor in  it! It may still have the old wooden benches in there...

 

And here are a bunch of good lookin' kids at Buck's Pocket park! (My two nephews in back, my niece and my sister's fiance's son in front) It is close to my parents' house so we made lots of trips there...and still do!

Of course, when I get home....there are my crazy cats waiting on me!!
