Ceci n'est pas une latrine.

We went to Angie's sister's to celebrate her 65th birthday on Sunday and this was Monday morning's display from her deck!!! Back at home to our mountain view and some well deserved time on the couch! Mowed her yard while we were there as her husband is still weak from his chemo and radiation treatments but doing much better!!!

Into the siding at Murfreesboro, Tennessee to meet a northbound.

The Nashville and Eastern rolls through one of Nashville’s grittier areas south of downtown. No honky-tonks here.

would only have been better if this was a unicorn! :)

Butters interrupts an impromptu Hermione photoshoot (upstairs where she's not supposed to be). It's difficult to send a batch up to flickr without a basset!

Butters gives a big basset arrrooo-o to Bam to get well soon!

Aggie sizes up another "Butters Situation."

Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Home of Middle Tennessee State University and the geographic center of Tennessee.

A few inches of snow is a lot to a little basset!

Butters, at first, has no idea what to think about all of this! There was a lot of head-shaking! This is her very first experience with measureable snowfall.

Rain drops off of seed pods.

Aggie and Butters look towards home at sunset.

These weeds on the side of the road were catching the setting sun.

From the Archives: A mine shaft building at Crater of Diamonds State Park near Murfreesboro Arkansas.

The story: In 2004 "the family" decided to vacation together. Our destination was the big volcanic pipe in Pike County Arkansas to try our luck digging for diamonds. Well unfortunately we didn't unearth any diamonds but we did have a great adventure!
