We, Kathy & I, drove back to TN on Wednesday. The only significant event during the drive was that we stopped at the Demo's restaurant in Lebanon, TN for supper. I had the 2nd best steak I've ever eaten. Demo's steaks are always good but the rib eye I had was outstanding. Kathy enjoyed her meal also. She especially likes the Thousand Island dressing at Demo's, she even got a 2nd side salad because she enjoys them so much.
Kathy has been helping Mary Lou some and I've been working on clearing the drive back to Tom & Mary Lou's so that when they sell Wendy's old double wide, someone can get it out. Tom & Dennis, a friend of his from church, had started the project earlier. There is plenty of work to go around. It will take a lot of clearing to get two 14'x70' units back up through the woods to the road.
The weather has been gorgeous! We have run the AC during the day but turn it off in the evening. Overnight lows are in the mid to high 60's. Daytime highs are in the mid 80's. I'd be happy if it were 5-10 degrees cooler, but it ain't bad.
This afternoon we went to the Cumberland County fair, in Crossville. One of my favorite movies is "Doc Hollywood". It is about a young doctor, played by Michael J. Fox, who gets lost and stranded in the rural, southern, small town of Grady. Grady is the ideal small town. I know that Crossville has its problems, you can't read the paper and not know so, but this evening, at the fair, I thought I might be in Grady. It was just a wonderful atmosphere.
I don't know how much work I'm going to do on our cabin this trip. The top fell out of one of our trees, at the edge of our lawn. It fell into the woods. There were 4 trees growing out of the same root system. I cut one of them down the last time I was here. One of the remaining ones leans over the lawn. If it falls it will fall on the motor home. I need to move the motor home and cut it down while I am here. Work on that plus more work on T&ML's drive will probably keep me plenty busy until we head back to MO on the 4th or 5th.
May God bless you and yours.
