Water...Great Smoky Mountains, Gatlingburg, TNOle Boy and I try to make to the GSM at least oncein October each year. We are not opposed to visitingother times, as well. I love the moutains.
Wheels. These cannons are at Shiloh National Military Parknear Savannah, TN. Ole Boy and I like to explore inside our little boxthat is north Alabama, southern Tennessee, and eastern Mississippi.
Orchids in the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, TN. We have spentFebruary weekends in Nashville so many times...it's where weoften go to celebrate my birthday. Usually, we take the scenicroute and make several stops along the way, including visitingtown squares (Columbia and Lawrenceburg, TN) or taking our timemeandering along the Natchez Trace. At the end of the Trace is Nashville...and a quaint little restaurant and shopping area calledLoveless Cafe.
This is called an Anthurium. I like the red ones better...Opryland Hotel's walkway is lined with many of these, along many other beautiful flowers. If you ever have the chance, stop in and walk around the hotel. (Click the link abovefor a virtual tour of the inside of the hotel.)
These azaleas were in full bloom at UNA, which is one of the prettiest campuses in the South!
This was the prettiest Iris I have ever seen. It was at mybrother-in-law's house this spring. The picture doesn't even come close to showing it's beauty.
Pansies. I wish I could tell you where these were taken...But I just cannot remember! Aren't they beautiful, though?
Wings...these are Sea Gulls in Orlando, Florida. They area little different than the ones that come to the Shoals each year.
Woodpecker in my back yard.
I can't believe it's nearly the end of April, and the end of this Challenge. I was bragging today that the Queen of Incompletion has not only not missed a day of posting in this challenge, but I have also read an entire book, and written a short story....my first attempt. Master Procrastinator no more! I doubt very seriously I will agree to post every day next month, but I think I will make some goals...like read another book. I hope you enjoy your Friday Eve.
