Macon County

We are on our way to the Legacy Museum in Montgomery, Alabama.
We got up early and left the Atlanta Airbnb with the huge purple velvet pillows at 6 30 am.
We hit the road, making great time when we realized that once you cross into the Alabama State line, time goes back an hour, so we had about 90 minutes to find something to do.
You know... I said to Dani, there's a Charles Barkley statue I'm dying to see..
You can't be serious she replied.
We went to Auburn.
Turns out it is a cute little university town and we got to see wild Tiger fans crowd the streets getting ready to see their college play against Arkansas (just checked and they lost 41-27).
It's just like in the movies, we saw people playing Cornhole, 3 girls moving into some dorms, and a family with a BBQ getting ready for the big game.
The university looked like a movie set with the beautiful autumn leaves matching the brick colored constructions.
And right next to the stadium there he was, Sir Charles Barkley.
I only got to see the last seasons of Barkley's career, when he was banged up and played for the Houston Rockets but I know he was amazing. He still is when he's on tv telling crazy stories and making fun of San Antonio women.
I was so happy to see him and was more than ready to have some coffee while we took a break from all that driving.En savoir plus
