SC:8,200
Still plugging away. A couple more writing days and I've inched the word count up a bit. Had a good writing day today. That antsy feeling of "Let's hurry up and be done writing today" or "Oh, how many words was that, am I done yet?" is about gone. Just got to keep going.
We went Tuesday on an exhausting trip down to the coast. First we went to Bellingrath Gardens and I got some gorgeous pictures. Then we went to Dauphin Island (very cul place) and rode the ferry across the bay to Ft. Morgan. Then we let Xander get his feet wet in the gulf. At first he was scared (and tired). But I started laughing at every wave and he quickly got the idea that it was fun. He was really enjoying walking on the wet sand and the waves splashing at his feet by the time we left.
Then we went to Lambert's Cafe (Home of the throwed rolls) for dinner. They litterally do throw the rolls to you. It's so cul. They also have 'pass arounds' which are additional veggies that you can have all you can eat. The day we were there they had fried taters and onions (yum), black-eyed peas, tomatos and macaroni, surgum and apple butter (for the rolls, yum!). It was delicious. There are only 3 locations; one at Foley, AL and two in Missori. You're missing something if you've never been.
