Everyone needs a happy place. Ashton has found hers.

The Riverwalk in Tuscaloosa, Alabama is always one of the highlights when we visit.
Time to store the college bicycle. Flat tires and hill weren’t anticipated.
It was a great year with a lot of happiness... only the end was sad.
It was a weird experience to pull into Tuscaloosa and businesses were sort of open. Seeing people out and about was so different after we had spent so much time inside our house these last couple of months.
Restaurants weren't quite completely open, but you could have 10 people at a time inside the business. As you can see from the X's on the ground, social distancing was definitely in place. Ashton and I took advantage of the situation and celebrated with burritos! https://tacomamaonline.com/ After a couple of months at home, Ashton got a scheduled time to move out of her dorm room. It was both happy and sad, but mostly it was rainy.
The University of Alabama had planned on staying open through the Pandemic. Then they closed. Ashton and all the students were told on a Wednesday they had to be out of the dorms by Friday at 5:00 pm. We had planned to pick her up and head to Florida for Spring Training but that had just recently been cancelled. We still headed to Alabama and she packed what she could into her car. Things were getting weird.
