Mobile, Alabama


I've been to Mobile a few times.  In high school, I attended the Key Club Convention there.  On Spring break, while in university, I went to Gulf Shores with some of my fraternity brothers.  And then, a few years after that, I was a groomsman in my friend's wedding that took place in his hometown, Mobile.

Some things I did:


*ate a po-boy (shrimp or oyster) 

*saw the USS ALABAMA (I think while just driving by)

*went to a showing of a classic movie at the historic Saenger Theatre

New England


Kade and I have been to each of these states.  We've spent the most time in Maine.  We have driven from the very southern tip of Maine, starting in the state's oldest town, Kittery, and working our way up the coast to Acadia National Park.  I can already imagine revisiting Maine.  I think next time we will start in Portland and then drive back up to Acadia National Park to complete a couple of hikes before finishing up the rest of the coast and possibly exploring a couple of Canadian provinces.  Right now it's just a dream!

William Coleman Espy

William Coleman (W.C.) Espy married Harriet Caroline (Ray) Espy in 1854.  They had three children.

Captain W. C. Espy fought on the side of the Confederacy in the U.S. Civil War.  He was in the infantry, and fought alongside his brother, Thomas Franklin Espy.  They were part of the 39th Regiment, Alabama Infantry (1862-1865).

W.C. would be my gg-uncle.
