Traveling the open road is fun, but sometimes it's nice to be in one place for a while. We were at Hidden Cove RV Camp in Arley, AL for 2 weeks. Mom and Dad chose a site w-a-y down at the end right near a big field so they could let me run off leash for a bit every day. Of course I went crazy out there and didn't want to come when Mom called. At first I would come for a treat but then I figured that measly little dog treat just wasn't worth losing my freedom over. Mom had to find better treats. She discovered I really like pepperoni. So now instead of calling "come" she yells out "pepperoni". Didn't take me long to learn what that word means but now I think the neighbors think my name is pepperoni.
A trip to Winston County seat brought us past the jail at Houston, which is the only surviving log jail in north Alabama. If you click on the picture you can read about its history.

| Main room inside jail |

| Smaller prisoner room |

| Nails in walls to discouraged sawing |
Mom found the nails peppering the walls interesting. They were to make it very difficult to escape by sawing your way through the 2" thick walls.

| Doorway for much shorter people than Dad |
I'll update you more about Arley, AL in my next post.
