Ron and I are glad to have Lucy and Katey join us for this part of our trip.

Today we left Georgia after a wonderful time with our family. We drove to Birmingham, Alabama where we stopped at Oak Mountain State Park. They have a wildlife rescue facility there. We toured it and saw them "tending" to animals that were injured. We went on a elevated "treetop" walk. We saw several exhibits of animals that had been rescued and were not able to be released. This required another hike in the hills.

We left Birmingham and drove on to Meridian, Ms. for the night. Tomorrow we will head to Vicksburg by way of Jackson.
