First Tennessee Visitor

Our first official visitor to our new home in Tennessee came last week.  Miriam Rivera and Julie have been friends for 25 years and Miriam came up to stay with us for five days.  The weather was beautiful with only one day of a little rain.  We took her to all the local hot spots and then Julie took her for a fun ride in our RZR.  They both survived and Miriam was thrilled for the neat ride around our property.

Julie, Sandy and I dropped in to Collins to visit with Mom this week and also celebrate my official retirement from the rat race.  We have had a great time and look forward to doing it again real soon now.

We also had a chance to visit grand dad's old home on Seminary-Willow Grove road.  It was nostalgic to see the place where we once spent so many good times.

Julie also got to experience some real southern cotton pickin' fun.  Read that as she stole some cotton balls from a field.

Here are a few pictures from our visit.

Congratulations to Courtney and Mike

My little girl and her finacee Mike have set the wedding date. They will marry Memorial Day of 2010 in Boulder, CO. The wedding will occur at the St Julien Hotel and Resort. I am so happy for my darling daughter and future son-in-law.

October Roads

First day of October and the girls are surely and steadily growing up.
