Back in the home saddle...
I'm back! Although I never really made an official "mattlandia" announcement that I was taking a week or so off, I am happy to inform you that I am back, plugged in and ready to get back to it.
Boris and I took our first road trip together this week. We drove down to Pensacola to catch up with the family, particularly with my sister Allison and her Montana gang! (Joe, Jansen, Carly, Will and a soon to be named little one...). The trip was great, and can be summed up in one word: FOOD. I ate my way across three days of southern home cooking, packed another 10 pounds of leftovers on ice and kept stuffing my gord another two days after coming home! Grandma, at 91, still has very strong kitchen Kung-Fu and makes a mean lemon pound cake!
Everytime I drive down to P'cola, I have to slow down to 35 mph while cruising through the small panhandle town of Flomaton, Alabama. There isn't an easy way to get from I-65 to Pensacola without driving all the way to Mobile, so instead, I take a 45 mile shortcut straight down Hwy 29, through Escambia County to 9 Mile Road. The halfway point of this shortcut is Flomaton.
This time through, a few things caught my eye that made me pull over and take a few shots.
