February 22, 2012

We looked around downtown Tallahassee this morning and drove through the Florida State campus then headed back north - on the slow route.

We went through cotton country and pecan country. We also saw many cattle farms.

We went downtown Macon to a used bookstore. Midtown, as they call it, looks to be making a resurgence. They have about half the buildings in use and many others are being restored and worked on. We found a nifty little hotdog place. It is just a hole-in-the-wall that has been there since 1916 called Nu-Way Weiner Stand. Weiner is intentionally misspelled. There are 6 small booths and 10 stools at the counter and that is it. The hotdogs have a red covering which makes them unique. There was a newspaper article on the wall of when Oprah Winfrey was there. If you are ever in Macon,Georgia, go to Cotton St to the Nu-Way Weiner Stand.



It was a unique hotdog but it doesn't compare to the Chicago Style hotdog, in Chicago!!!!
