Cowboys, Cowdogs, and outlaws beware! It was a cowboy and cowdog theme this year for our non-Halloween evening. Chip, who got a small stuffed cow earlier in the day, wanted to dress up as an outlaw. And Parker dropped by for a super hero moment dressed as Woody from Toy Story. There was lots of [...]
For months, I have driven by this industrial lot that is filled with old gas pumps from another century. I can't explain why, but I always wanted to stop and photograph them. Finally this last week with storm clouds gathering, I stopped and asked the owner if I could take some photos. I live in [...]

It may be fall, but sunflowers are still blooming! I was riding in the mountains this weekend and passed a field full of sunflowers. I turned around a quickly as possible and headed back. And while I didn't have lots of time, I did have enough to take these photos. And I learned a lot. [...]
I keep seeing all these different kinds of pumpkins, which has made me want pumpkin soup. I fell in love with it a few years ago while eating at Callaway Gardens near Pine Mountain, Georgia. This year, I think I will make my own. It's yummy stuff. Tomorrow is sunflower day. Wait until you see [...]
After a really nice visit with friends, I took a short drive up into the mountains where fall is in full swing! Here's the Sautee Store in the Nacoochee Valley, where we bought imported Vanilla Creme Soda. I have never had anything so good! From there we took a road that led to Lake Burton [...]
The end of the day, the end of the week, and you can almost hear the quiet hanging over the mountains.
