What's very cool is that Jeremiah realized the park is minutes away from a little town called Glasgow and a little place called Natural Bridge where he spent about a year and a half of his life (his beginning high school years). Matt and Kristy were gracious enough to take a peek into Jeremiah's past with us.
It was really neat to be able to see and learn a bit more about Jeremiah's childhood and where he's come from. Glasgow, although a slightly cute town, is really hard to imagine. It is very very small and kind of seems to take you back in time (even more so than Montrose). There is one grocery store, one fire department, and a bunch of churches, all of which look like they are straight from the 1930s. I wish I had taken more pictures, but here are a couple of Jeremiah's old house and the church where his dad worked...
When we were finished our driving tour of Glasgow, we had reservations at the Natural Bridge Hotel for dinner. We ate in the Colonial Dining Room, the place where Jeremiah worked as a busser and head buffet runner. We gorged on their famous Friday night seafood buffet special and it was delicious. Crab legs and fried seafood abound. The hotel is located next to the Natural Bridge itself, a well-known stone structure formed like a bridge due to erosion and other natural causes (hence, natural bridge). Apparently, it's one of the 7 wonders of the world or one of the 7 ancient wonders of the world. Whatever it is, it's big.
