2023 August 3, Alabama Music Hall of Fame & Railroad Museum TUSCUMBIA, AL

Our first stop was the dentist. I had two teeth pulled Friday, and the dentist wanted to see how they were healing. 

We rode to Tuscumbia to tour the Alabama Music Hall of Fame. Our granddaughter now loves to go to museums, and I thought she would enjoy this one. 

We stopped outside the museum for a couple of pictures.

Ava at the Fountain 
Bought our tickets, and the lady at the ticket counter gave Ava a Scavenger Hunt sheet.
The sheet had a list of 10 different animals to be found throughout the museum. 
She told Ava that she would get a prize once she had completed the task.
(Dog, fish, snake, peacock, monkey, opossum, horse, rooster, fish,? )


The ticket lady took our picture before we entered the Museum Display.

We looked at the animals and the displays as we walked through the museum.
She liked the display of Nat King Cole, the Alabama Bus, and many others.
We reached monkey number ten on the list and walked back through the museum, looking for a monkey.
We got a hint it was on a hat of Clint Eastwood and near the end of the displays.
She found it and headed to the gift shop for her surprise.
She picked a whistle and a star keychain.

Ava and I were at the entrance door when we left. 

Next, we rode to the Tuscumbia train Depot, but it was closed. 
We saw the trains on the back.

We rode to Florence and ate lunch at Chick-fil-A.

Ava ordered a kid's meal with chicken nuggets, waffle fries, and Chocolate milk. She also ordered ice cream but didn't eat it. I finished it off.

Once she finished eating, she wanted to play, so I said go on.
