Tomorrow. Anything I can do for a couple of hours that isn't going to give me the Corona?
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Downtown is kind of eclectic but since everything is about shutdown pretty much I guess you could call it sight seeing. Lots of good eateries but not sure who is open etc... an only carry out sucks since its about eating there.
Seems a lot of people are drawn to Coondog Cemetery, about 15,000 visitors a year. About a 2.5 hr round trip from Florence. Get on the Trace in Central, can visit the Rock Wall and then head South across the river to Cherokee and to Allsboro exit. Then East to Freedom Hills WMA and Coondog.
Florence Harbor is interesting and across the river to the Trestle Bridge, not sure if it open?

Tomorrow. Anything I can do for a couple of hours that isn't going to give me the Corona? Absolutely. Give her a hug on her way out the door and tell her to drive safe.

Muscle Shoals just right over the bridge has more to see at this time. Don’t know if any of the studios are open right now.

Ricatoni’s in downtown Florence is doing carry out.
Wichahpi stone wall (longest unmortared wall in the U.S.)
Rail road bridge at muscle shoals
Lions at UNA should be open
I know coon dog cemetery is open
The trace is scenic (but so is everydamnthing in Selma)
Dismals ain’t too terribly far (and there ain’t nothing like that in Selma)
Carrying a gun isn't comfortable; but at times it is comforting

Stop by Natural Bridge on the way up and see the “largest natural bridge east of the Rockies”
You're only as good as your worst shot-

I’m sure some of these things seem lame to me bc I’ve seen them several times living so close, but outback had a good point... Could take some homeless folks fishing below Wilson at rock pile.. smallmouth were biting

Indian Mound museum, close to downtown. That will prolly be the winner. I like that stuff. the trip has been put off until Wed so I have an extra day to plan anyhow. Normally, I would take Outback's advice but I'm ready to get out and road trip.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Well the mound is still accessible but the museum is closed. I saw where there is a meat company (Florence Meat Co?) close by. Should I bring my cooler and visit it?

Give the oakville indian mound a call if thats your thing. It is close to moulton. Could swing by sheltons clothing/outdoors if that would make momma happy.
