Sweet Home Alabama

My friend Luke & i took off riding today in the most perfect weather, ended up in Alabama & a strange old flea market off the highway...

Pack lunch and eat in a field. This photo looks like i should have my guitar out & singing Byrds songs.


bought some great old country albums from a cool old guy at the flea market who told endless stories of his days in the army and listening to marty robbins and hank snow on the jukebox at the honky tonks.

the flea market lifestyle can be a weird thing. this could make a good documentary.

for all your flashy cowboy boots and sombrero needs just stop here!


luke on his sportster

this old sign off of the highway says ''Enjoy Beef Everyday!''

although most people thinks it says ''Enjoy Beer Everyday''
