Man! It was sure great to get away from the ATL and rest!

K and I visited with the team from Texas before leaving for Tennessee.

We enjoyed an awesome time of togetherness for the weekend.

We read books, hiked up the mountain and walked around the neighborhood.

I caught up on a lot of sleep. I really had no idea how tired I was until I went to sleep and woke up 11 hours later! YOW!

Raccoon Mountain is just outside of Chattanooga. It is really beautiful over there.

We enjoyed walking around Chatta too!

We stayed at Alpine Lodge, our new favorite place.

It’s run by the Patel family. Definitely not for everybody, but we like it! It’s right on the Trail of Tears. Sad part of our history.

Last month we had snow. This month POLLEN!

I really enjoyed the BBQ at Purple Daisy cafe in St. Elmo, right beside Incline Railway.

We came on home Sunday afternoon. We stopped at the Tellus mineral museum. I enjoy looking through the gift shop for rocks for my collection. Didn’t find anything today, but I got a couple of cool toys. Yep, I’m still a kid.

Great to be home and hang out with my Ashley angel! She just keeps getting more and more beautiful!

I thought this was funny!

Reminded me of driving on 285. Not me, other folks!
