The Adventures of Dooley and Me - Part 2 - Mobile

The Adventures of Dooley and Me Part 2- Mobile

After 4 hours or so on the road, Dooley and I arrived in Mobile to our first “pet friendly hotel”. Boy did we have a lot to learn about unloading a car, while watching the dog, cleaning up his business, and keeping him (and Me) out of trouble while doing all of that! Plus, it was Dooley’s first night ever in a hotel!

In the past few years, I have changed my perspective on traveling. Instead of just getting from one place to another, I have begun looking up old friends along the way, as well as meeting new friends, and finding new inspirations.

2 great things about Mobile, my buddy Lee Baby lives there, and Wintzells Oyster House is there. Put the two together and you have a great time! I haven't seen Lee Baby for several years and it was great to see him and catch up. It is true about what happens when you see a good friend after some years... sure you catch up, ... but it's like you've never been apart. Lee Baby is Da Best! I Love you man! (C’mon!) 

We went to Wintzell’s Oyster House for food… I love a place with bartender’s with attitude. I’ll have to admit, the best raw oyster I ever had was at Wintzell’s … at the bartender’s constant urging, turns out he was right!

Last time I went through Mobile (last September) I stopped to see Sean Dietrich (Sean of the South) play at a local church there. I discovered Sean on Facebook between my heart surgery and covid, and I credit him with getting me through it halfway sane and happy to be alive. I met him and found that he was as real and as kind and as positive a person as I hoped. If he plays near you, go see him. He’s for real! Sean’s coming to Columbus, to the Springer Opera House, February 18th. Buy your tickets soon, they’re selling fast!

Next up, … Lake Charles, … Dooley is a chick magnet!
