We left about noon yesterday to go to Auburn, AL, to visit a friend (Hi, Sue) and to see our Lady Mocs play the Auburn Lady Tigers. Sue is a fan of women’s basketball too, and she invited us to come down, spend the night with her, and go to the ballgame. Unfortunately, our Ladies lost 53-40 in a brutal defensive game (SEC teams - watch out for Auburn!). But we had a good visit and got to know an internet friend better in person.
Today, it took us about four hours to get home, driving through the rain all the way. We went straight through Atlanta this time, so we could get in the HOV lane. It made driving in the rain much easier - no worrying about trucks and having to change lanes, etc. We got delayed by back-ups from a couple of accidents, but nothing too bad - and at least we weren’t involved.
We had 1.5” of rain in our gauge from last night and today. The rain had stopped by the time we got home. And since the front roared through, the winds have been fierce. But I could our blessings - we’re not getting the 8-12” of snow the states in the Middle West are getting.
Tomorrow we plan to do next to nothing.

Our ship (350 passengers) is the little one on the right.
