Alvin C. York State Park.


The day after we stayed in Rugby, we drove to Pall Mall TN, to the Alvin C. York State Park. Alvin York was a WW1 hero who single-handedly captured 132 Germans and 35 machine guns. We met his son, Andrew York, and he let me climb up on the mobile AA gun that was in front of the gift shop. It was really cool and we went on a nature hike and saw his grave.
