Rattlesnake Saloon

---

Even though I love Swamp John's, this place has it beat a million times over for atmosphere. Our day ended yesterday by going to the Rattlesnake Saloon in Tuscumia, Alabama. It was located in the general vicinity of the Coon Dog Cemetery. This place is part of the Seven Springs Lodge...never got to see the lodge but there were horses all around you could ride. In the field where we parked, a pick-up truck came to take us to the saloon. Clarence was our driver. We sat on benches in the back of the truck and HELD ON FOR DEAR LIFE! Clarence rapidly took us down this very narrow, dirt path road that went straight down along a huge cliff (all in the woods)....better than any amusement park ride. Our ride ended at the bottom of the cliff and at the side of a huge cave. What a place! We ate our meal inside the side of this cave. The actual saloon was a small wooden building where there was a motorcycle man trying to get his meal for free....if he could eat a 2 lb. hamburger and fries ($40.00), he got it free. He couldn't do it. I hope my photos can show you what the place looked like...if not it has a web site: RATTLESNAKESALOON.NET

Not sure what we have ahead of us. If it includes anything like what we have already done....WOW. We may not want to leave Red Bay, Alabama. Forget New Orleans, San Antonio, Las Vegas, etc --- we have Swamp John's, Coon Dog Cemetery and now the Rattlesnake Saloon. Life is really good!!!
