Friday, May 26, we rode Lawrenceburg to Goodwill, where we bought 2 pairs of Niki Shorts.
We rode to the Amish in Etheridge, where we bought a carton of fresh eggs, homemade butter, Homemade chocolate candy with peanuts, and a bag of peanuts. We bought a head of cabbage, some green onions, and two gallons of strawberries.
We stopped at Krogers for 8 cases of diet Mountain Dews, 4 instances of Sprite Zeroes, and a couple frozen pizzas.
We stopped at Long John Silvers for fish and shrimp, which we took home.
Ate our dinner and put all the veggies in the refrigerator.
Then, I made 17 jars of strawberry Jam.

Saturday, May 27, we rode to Point Mallard to the Hot Air Balloon Festival. We didn't see any balloons but saw lots of tractors, food vendors, and vendors. It was cool this morning and rained a little, but it warmed up fast. We talked to a man from Cullman there enjoying the festival. The festival sure was spread out, so lots of walking. We missed the car show.

We rode to Hartselle for lunch at O'Bryan's.
Where I ordered grilled black chicken with a baked sweet potato.
After lunch, we rode back to Decatur, where they were having a scavenger hunt for 10 tiny turtles along Second Avenue.
Hubby parked the car but stayed inside while I searched for the turtles.
I met a group of six who were also doing the scavenger hunt and asked if I could join them.

Our group had so much fun searching for the turtles and then taking turns getting our picture taken with the tiny turtles.
