Tree - Foscue Creek Park, Nov 21, 2008

Well, I made it. Fifteen hundred miles south to Demopolis AL to escape the descending wintry weather in Red Rock. Right. It's as cold here tonight as it was when I left Red Rock a week ago. But that's ok; at least day time temps are a tad higher than those I left behind.

Once the current blustery spell passes I'll get down to business and see if I can find and seal the leaks that plagued me on those wet snowy miles on the way down.
