Parrott alley

Thursday
On my way back from swimming this afternoon, I stopped off at the library and then in downtown Montgomery to find a blip. Parrott Alley, depicted in my blip, reflects the name of early merchants in downtown Montgomery. Richard Parrott owned a general store near this alley. The only phone in town in 1897 was located in Parrotts store - they sold everything from harnesses to sugar. I wonder what they'd think if they were to come back today and see the variety of shops there today, a number of them quite expensive, and people walking around talking on their mobile phones! I have blipped the alley before in different seasons, here and here.
It was a very warm but breezy day today, with the mercury topping out at 76F (!), but tonight we are supposed to have storms passing through, and tomorrow will be much cooler.
