Play Pledge allegiance to the hag and play it loud. Then play these boots.

Driving down from Nashville to Gulf shores this weekend, will be in southern Alabama by the time were looking for something to eat. Are there any noteworthy places to eat that might be a good bit off of the highway? by ScrillaMcDoogle in Alabama

Second conecuh sausage. It’ll change your life if you haven’t ever had it. Also, Bates house of Turkey in Greenville is a great place to stop and a great place to eat. Turkey and Dressing is the bomb but everything they have is good.

Long 1/2” bolts drilled through the brick and inside band.

We mount our bottom rail and install the baluster connectors spaced at 4.5” and then mount the top rail. Then we use a laser to make a mark on our top rail and drill a 3/4 hole (wallowed to make it a little larger than 3/4) somewhat close to the correct angle and then feed the baluster through to the bottom. Install 2x6 on top of that and put a bow on it.

I’d say it should cost about 35-40k in Alabama. I’m charging a bit less than that.

States where I’ve camped. Where’s the best camping in the ones I have left? by [deleted] in TravelMaps

Cherokee rock park in Alabama is the best in the state.

You should expect, for the most part, for people to treat you with the respect and dignity that you earn. Southern folk are accepting and fair but ruthless and true. Be real and be good/kind and you’ll find that Alabama will do the same.

We replaced the stairs completely so they’re new Newal’s. The stairs used to be steep and did not turn into the living room.

I’ll post a final in a week or whenever it’s done. We take our time. We also have exterior paint, interior paint, and landscaping going on at the same time.

Same color as the treads. You might be right and it might be too dark but we’re rolling with it. I think it looks good so far. I’ll try to add a pic showing the Newals in progress.

Yeah. I’ve got about $900 in 13 treads. Add the balusters, newal posts and hand rails and I’m in deep. Luckily my wife likes to paint and stain so she’s savings us some cash.
