Southern Hospitality (road trip, pics)

Guest · Dec 13, 2007

TV, radio, the movies ... talk about "Southern Hospitality" and things like "Sweet Home Alabama". For just over a week, I experienced this "Southern Hospitality" phenomenon. And, yes, it is VERY true!

I can hardly believe my 2007 road trip is over.... The wintry weather mix (mainly ice/snow) that greeted me when I returned Saturday, December 1, was NOT the way to welcome me back home; though, it was nice to see many people at our annual Christmas Open House that evening.

As for the trip itself, I met a lot of great people along the way, saw some "old friends", and missed meeting a number of people as well. I had a blast ... and want to go back on the road ASAP!

I rented a 2008 Buick LaCrosse. I wanted a Dodge Charger, but Enterprise did not have one at the time and offered me the Buick LaCrosse for the same weekly rate.... I told several people during my road trip that, while I like most of the new cars that GM offers, I wouldn't buy them because they are front-wheel drive. This Buick is no exception. Fine car ... handles/drives/rides well, even after about 3,000+ miles were added to it by me

Cort, you really put a lot of time in this post. Bless you. I found that if we start at picture #1 and press next picture, we get the whole lot of them right to the last one. Beautiful cars and lovely pictures of people you visited. Thanks for taking the time to do this. It's just great.

Just wanted to add quickly that, as I'm betting most of you know by now, I LOVE to travel ... and I love meeting people. IMHO, it is very cool to put a face and a voice to the name on the computer screen. For me, it certainly makes the experience of participating on the various forms more enjoyable.

I can only hope to continue to be blessed enough to travel and meet people each year...and I sure hope others of you are able to do the same.
