| Mallards, White Ducks, and goldfish greeted me as I approached the pond at Big Springs. |
My Hubby ordered fried fish, shrimp, fries, toast, and a stack of three buttermilk pancakes.

Hubby drove us through the larger-than-life Christmas Card Lane, showcased in front of some of the historic homes in Madison along Front and Church Streets.

We rode to Wheeler Wildlife Refuge in Decatur via I-65, where workers were working on the bridge over the Tennessee River, causing traffic backup.

We walked down to the overlook to see the Cranes and ducks. Not as many sandhills and Whooping cranes as last year.
 |
| We saw thousands of Sandhill Cranes, but only one White Whooping Crane The Whooping Crane, at 5 feet tall, is the tallest bird in North America and one of the most endangered. They are named for their whooping unison calls. |
Our last stop was Founders Park in front of Old Historic Bank to tour the Enchanted Forest Christmas Tree Stroll.

By the time we arrived home, it was dark. Hubby stopped at McDonald's for a hamburger, fries, apple pie, and Ice Cream. I ate a piece of the fish he had left over from lunch.
Uploaded some of my pictures after I arrived home.
