Mooresville

We finally made it to Mooresville.  We had heard so much about it and I can see why.  Last week the news anchor  on the noon news, said it was the best kept secret about Alabama.  It's this little neighborhood that was built in the early 1800's.  It's about three streets wide and three streets long.  The oldest working Post Office in Alabama is there.  The houses are just beautiful and you can tell they are from the 1800's.  One house even had a clay tennis court.  First, Chuck and I walked up and down the streets and then we got in the explorer and drove them.  If I had to live in a neighborhood again, Mooresville would be the one I'd pick.  We're going to go back around Christmas time.  Something tells me that the whole neighborhood is going to be decorated.  Charlotte said that sometimes they have " walking tours" and you can even go inside some of the homes.  I sure hope I can find out when the next one is.  I kept telling Chuck as we walked around, that I wish I could see what the houses looked like inside.  Maybe some day, I will know.
