Tennessee Family and Friends Fun

 Hey Friends,

Hello from the home front. We were gone Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. 

This time, it was time for a road trip with Mamaw and Papaw to visit Friends. We had a great trip! The travel went smoothly, the fellowship was superb, and, of course, we had delicious food along the way!

I failed as a blogger in documenting everything. However, I do have a handful of pictures from our short trip to share.

The weather was gorgeous. On the trip down there, it was terrific to see spring in action! Redbud trees lined the road, and we enjoyed the sunshine.


Mamaw and Papaw wanted to visit a long time family friend, Gladys. It was great to see her once again. Tuesday afternoon we met her for dinner at Cracker Barrel.





Dad often loved to quote the words of wisdom from Garfield the cat. I saw this towel in Cracker Barrel and knew he would have loved this one! It would have become part of his regular vocabulary!

Wednesday we traveled to Oak Ridge Tennessee. Where we met up with Bro. Herman, Sis Margaret Woods and Sis. Sue Nicholas. We enjoyed a great lunch with them at Shoney's. That is where I started forgetting to take pictures.

Before heading back to the hotel. We did stop for ice cream at Dairy Queen. I can not spend too much time with either one of my Papaws without an ice cream.

I did take some pictures of DQ to show Papaw Danny what he missed. 




We took a drive to see some of the beautiful scenery along our route. Here are a couple pictures that Mom captured of Papaw Eugene. I thought they were wonderful!



Wednesday night we attended church at Beechfork in Wartburg, Tennessee. It was great to be in service again with Pastor Herman Woods, and all of our precious Beechfork friends! We love those dear people like our family! They have been so instrumental in our lives over the years.

Thursday morning it was time to point the car toward home. We took our time driving home enjoying scenery in Kentucky. 

The car magically found its way to Sonny’s BBQ for lunch! Yes, the food tasted just as good or even better than it looks! below our pictures of mine and Mom's meals.



The company was even better! 


I love my Mama!


I always have to take a quick picture of Sonny’s sweet barbecue sauce to send to my Uncle Danny Morgan.  He loves it! Well, it is one of my favorite barbecue sauces too.


That is a full recap on this week’s travel. I hope you enjoyed a peek into our week. See you tomorrow.
