Fourth File Foto

Heather over at Needles and Pens tagged me for a fun photo meme.

The point is to go to your fourth photo folder (on your computer), choose the fourth photo, and write about it.

Here is my fourth photo:

This is the grave of a dog named Loud that was in the coon dog cemetery in Mynot, Alabama.

A few years ago, my husband and son and I went on a week-long roadtrip through the South (Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana).

Seeking all of the significant cultural and educational hotspots, we visited such sites as:

The Cross Garden in Prattville, Alabama.

(Note: The only other person I've ever known who has also visited this highly cultural and educational hotspot is author Kerry Madden.)

The birthplace of Elvis in Tupelo, Mississippi

Colonel Poole's BBQ and Pig Hall of Fame in Elijay, Georgia

(Note: The only other person I've ever known who has also visited this highly cultural and educational hotspot is author Stacy DeKeyser.)

And.....

the Coon Dog Cemetery in Mynot, Alabama.

Now, here's the noteworthy thing about that: it plays a significant role in my next book, The Small Adventure of Popeye and Elvis.


Note to the IRS: See? I told you this was a research trip that qualified for a tax write-off!
