Been a while since I drove from Eufaula to Montgomery, AL. Dang that was like driving thru a time warp...going back 50 years. Last edited by Swamp Wolf; 07/08/19 03:38 PM.

Didn't look like anything got updated. Surprised to see tiny little cinder block homes not much bigger than a chicknn coop with people sitting on the stoop in the heat of the day. Wouldn't doubt it if they lacked AC or even electricity.

But the flag isnt what I was referring to when I said it was like going back in time. It was the rural, run-down stretch between Eufaula and Montgomery. Thank God For Your Blessings!
