A cool site...


I always surf late into the night as I prepare something for the blog. Tonight was no exception! I attached the link for "Erwin", TN and when I clicked on the web site, I found something called "Quilt Trail". I went there and found a great site for searching out barns in eastern TN with quilt patterns adorning them. This is cool and some day, I hope to drive to some of those sites and see them for myself. I did something similar a few years back when I took my boys around Orlando and snapped pics with the LIZART figures standing taller than any of us.




Back in December...Paris....


I went with my BFF to EPCOT after Christmas and we had a great time together (we always do)! Here we are eating in France (I think it is so cool to say that). They had the best quiche I've ever eaten and the cheesecake was scrumptious!

oooo.....one last pic....


Okay, I thought about this picture I took. We had a lot of dust in TX so I took advantage of it on the back window. We have been sporting this ever since! And we haven't had any rain hitting the back window.

The side windows had (1) each day crossed out except for the present one on one side (can't see it anymore) and (2) the states listed that we had gone through (still can see it but haven't taken a pic since IA).

I also had "Thing 1" on Karl's side and "Thing 2" on KJ's side but they can roll their windows up and down and it got wiped away! Oh well, it was nice while it lasted!!!

Homeward Bound


There's a lot of songs to express the upcoming trip back to FL. I used JD's song because it is the CD we put on whenever we leave TN coming from Erwin, where Kent's parents live now. These are the mountains we know and though we drove through VA and even stayed overnight in WV, these lyrics can easily reflect TN and NC as we drive away, southward to the Atlantic Ocean.....these country roads will be taking us home and back here, soon again!

Quick Note


I don't know if you know this but if you click on each picture, it will enlarge it for a better view. Also, if you click on anything that is underlined and highlighted, it will take you to a related web site...like the songs take you to the full lyrics.

"Simple Man" - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Relaxing in the Mountains


Hello! I've been taking it easy since we got to Kent's parent's house in TN. We are having great weather once again! It was about 70 degrees today in the sun. It feels good to wear pants and long sleeves.

We ate at Maple Grove for dinner tonight. I should have taken a picture. The food is so good there. We are going back for dinner tomorrow (Friday). The special is turkey and dressing plus two sides for $4.99. And you get a roll and butter and the portions are tremendous! Tonight I had the roast and gravy and it's the only place I've ever had it where there wasn't any fat or grizzle to pull off! WOW! MMMMMM....(yes, I'm gaining weight here!)

We'll be home on Sunday. As much as I enjoy being here in the country, I am looking forward to being home in my own "place".

Below are the fun things you can do on vacation. First one to bed is always fair game and mom and dad were always first to sleep as you can see...




Karl actually ate these M n Ms later!!!

"Every party has a pooper that's why we invited you....party pooper....party pooper...." (Hey, that should have been the title for the other picture!!!)
