Tues Nov 19th - Santa Claus, The Tree That Owns Itself, and Manny the 12-Foot-Tall Fish

I wasn’t planning on blogging about today because it was just going to be an uninteresting catch up day, you know, grocery shopping, fill up the gas, get propane, check into a campground, etc.

But that was before we met Santa Claus, saw The Tree That Owns Itself, and visited Manny the 12-Foot-Tall Fish.

Eufaula, Alabama. Not sure how it is pronounced but we called it Afula. 

Grocery shopped at both Piggly Wiggly and Winn Dixie.

Getting the gas was uneventful, but when we went to the TSC Tractor Supply Store to fill up our propane tank, we just had to go check out the store. What a great place! Like if Auto Zone also sold cattle feed. Bob found and bought a wireless indoor/outdoor weather monitor that he has been looking for all over.

 

Along the way we checked out "The Tree That Owns Itself"

Also, "Manny the 12-Foot-Tall Fish". 
I don’t think he was really 12 feet tall, but you know how it is with fish stories,  www.al.com/sports/2018/02/giant_bass_statue_dedicated_in.html

Oh, and before we had left the campground in the morning, the guy in the next site came over for a tour of Our V. This happens all the time, more on that in a later post. Anyway, when they had pulled in, I said he looked just like Santa Claus. He gave us his business card, and what do you know!

Checking into the new campground this evening was also uneventful.
