They are active in youth groups and school activities and one will be competing in sports in Israel this summer while the other will be a camp counselor for kids with disabilities. Married to the best person I’ve ever known, we are just smitten with our two sons who are 15 months apart. Besides those things, I like to share recipes and visits to fab restaurants, museums, and hotels. Hi – I’m Ginger. I document vernacular and visionary art and art environments, and study Southern folkways, currently documenting 100+ Alabama graveshelters. There’s no check to pay – you just leave…I think it’s $7…in the basket. Av had fried chicken and some rice, and I had chicken and potato salad with butter beans:Īt Peggy’s, you just walk into the house, up to the kitchen where the food is set, serve yourself and pour some tea, then they bring bread and dessert. They moved out recently, and there’s extra seating now in the living room! We love it. Peggy’s has been around since 1961, where Peggy and Don Webb started serving food out of their home’s kitchen – and the guests would eat in the dining room. Next, we went for lunch at Peggy’s, which is right in downtown Philadelphia: The next morning, we got up and shopped at Williams Brothers (which is one of those stores that’s been around forever – it’s 50% grocery store, 45% clothes and shoe store, and 5% tack and feed store!).

It was okay, but the room smelled at first like a huge container of powdery carpet deodorant.

The rooms at the Golden Moon are nicer than the Silver Star (we stayed there one night a few years ago for a convention). Both properties are operated by the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians. This is the Silver Star hotel/casino, which is right across the street from the Golden Moon. On our way back home, Av and I stayed at the Golden Moon Casino Hotel.
