Gone off up North

[this was actually written 3.20.26, but apparently never posted because of the wonky internet in Monteagle]

Sort of a placeholder here.

We're in Monteagle, Tennessee, seven hours north of Bay County in one of our most special places on earth. Late yesterday afternoon we walked the Domain of the University of the South, which was an anthill of kids and activity. It's not spring break here yet.

Afterward we stopped for a drink at the fancy new Sewanee Inn, then to supper at one of our favorite restaurants where Al Capone used to stop on his way to Florida from Chicago. His next stop on the way was the Hampton Springs Lodge, a stone's throw from Wyldswood. Small world.

We ended the evening with a roaring fire in our little cabin at the Smokehouse Lodge, then began today in the whirlpool tub. Next stop Columbus, Ohio, on the great circle route to Corning.

But so glad we stopped here. Sewanee is that place.
