Week 51

The weather hit a nice spell and Darrell and I took off on Percy the Motorcycle and went out to Seven Points nearby.  It was a nice, relaxing jaunt.

More info on Seven Points here.

Week 50

Wendy and I attended a wedding reception/celebration for our friend Marabeth and her husband Ken at the Nashville Bahá’í Faith center.  It was a lovely ceremony and it was wonderful to hear all the kind words of love and support from their family and friends.  I am glad we were able to attend such a beautiful event.

Week 49

Darrell and I ventured out to try one last time to find the Tilgham Cemetery, without avail.  We did, however, have a nice jaunt through the woods, and we explored the park office.

The closest we could find to anything resembling a grave were piles of rocks like this, but the ground was so rocky, they were natural formations, I'm sure.

More information about the Tilgham Cemetery is, well, I frankly don't know.  If you find it, let me know?  :^)  It is on the Google Maps if you search for "Tilgham Cemetery, Hermitage, TN."

Week 48

They built a new Goodwill Store in Antioch, and I'm working on a bookshelf project, so I just had to go exploring today.  I got a handful of clothes off the $0.99 racks, and I found exactly what I was looking for, book-wise.  It was a successful trip.

Week 47

Darrell and I went in search of a local cemetery, Tilgham Cemetery, but we couldn't find it.  Instead, we found a rainbow that followed us around, this really pretty campground, a climbing tower, some pretty raindrops on a dead tree, and an ominous walking path.

All in all, a good adventure.  Maybe one day, we'll find the cemetery.

Week 46

Since we are working on a 30th anniversary display at work, my supervisor kindly got me into the anniversary timeline exhibit upstairs at the Ryman Auditorium.

I've been to the Ryman many times before, but I'd never been upstairs, and I'd definitely never seen this Hatch Show Print exhibit.  I was pleasantly surprised to find this autographed print from the last Ben Folds show I saw there.

Week 45

Father, Christopher, and I went to Scottsboro, Alabama, to the Proctor family reunion.  We had a lot of fun, and we decided on the way home to stop by Hammer's Department Store in South Pittsburg, Tennessee.

Christopher had been there before, but Father and I hadn't.  It was an adventure for sure!  They had every kind of Carharts available.  I got some ladies pants for myself, along with some mens irregulars for Darrell.  (Still not sure what makes them irregular.)  I also got a cool dress for $1.50.
