Alabaster, AL – Dutton AL Nick & Ginger – Moochdocking!!!!! Days 19 – 24 The run from Alabaster AL to Dutton was beautiful, but a word of advice. If you ever have to travel Interstate 59 in Alabama, DON’T, find another route. It is the worse road I have ever been on!!!! There were so many cracks and potholes, the RV did nothing but rattle the entire time we were on it. The trip was only about 2.5 hours drive time that took us 7 hours to complete, we made a few of stops on our way. The first was Bass Pro Shop, we timed leaving Alabaster to arrive at 9am, right as they opened. We spent an hour browsing and shopping while we waited for our next stop the Barber Motorsport Museum.

I've decided that the rest of the trip will be at night. I just can't take the heat during the day. The new Ultimate seat on the Mothership is worlds better than my old Corbin ... read more

Little River Canyon My brothers and I decided to drive up to Little River Canyon in Northeast Alabama, near Lookout Mountain, to go hiking and camping. We had looked at a few different places in that area of the state, but Anna suggested going there, b/c she had always thought it was pretty and knew I'd like it. We filled up our gas tanks the night before, fearing the gas scare on the day of our departure, which helped us get out of town quickly. Insead of driving up to Fort Payne and bypassing all the scenary, we took the Collinsville exit, and made our way up the Look Out Mountain Parkway and Little River Canyon scenic route (CR176). We were pretty shocked to see such an emense depth in the earth. I didn't think that ... read more
