We ate our first tomato from the garden last night. It was so yummy! Unfortunately, it was a fairly small tomato so we didn’t get much. I’m dreaming of tomato and bacon sandwiches–can’t wait! I got my new camera strap. It is so cute! It actually matches a pair of Tevas that I have. Won’t …

I Feel Fine
Here’s the view from the deck. It has been absolutely beautiful here, although we could use some rain. JC, Cathy, Brenda and Dave (JC’s sister and brother-in-law) came up on Saturday. We had a nice time visiting with them. After they left on Sunday, Tommy and I were pretty lazy.Yesterday, we went up on the …
Misery
Well, we had enough of the heat and traffic of home and decided to return to the mountains. We got to Balsam Grove around 1:30 today and it was in the mid 70’s. Lovely weather! As we were enjoying a dinner on the deck, Bubba got stung by one or two yellowjackets. If it wasn’t …
Nothin’ Shakin’
We came home yesterday to celebrate Fathers’ Day and to get a few things taken care of. We plan to head back to the hills probably on Friday. As we headed into Atlanta’s traffic and heat, we wondered what in the heck we were doing! Sunday afternoon I wore a sweatshirt. It was 56 degrees …
Good Day Sunshine
If things aren’t blooming so you can take pictures, go buy some flowers. These gerbera daisies looked so pretty when I stopped at Poppy’s in Brevard to buy steaks for dinner. So they were placed in the shopping cart! Anne and Cleg came up yesterday to spend a couple of days with us. We had …
Act Naturally
Today I decided to go into town. We needed a few things up here and I can always use a trip to Brevard. I went to WalMart and got some items. I then went to the scrapbook store and bought a magazine. Then I walked over to the outdoor shop to see what kind of …
A Day in the Life
Not much going on here today. Tommy and Bubba took a long walk this morning. When they turned around to head back home, Bubba took off without Tommy. Although Bubba had been on a few walks, he had not been as far as they went this time. But, he hurried on home by himself and …
The Fool on the Hill
It sure was nice getting to BG yesterday. We were so tired–I’m not sure why–that we decided we didn’t want to eat dinner. During the night, we kept hearing what sounded like something scratching. Tommy got up and looked around. He found a big bug on the outside of the screen door that was trying …
Yesterday
It was hot here–about 95 degrees. Too hot to do anything. I did go out and tried to get some photos of a butterfly on our butterfly weed bush. Apparently butterflies don’t like beagles around. So I came back inside and started packing for NC. Besides, the mosquitoes are terrible this year. Yuck!
Bubba takes a boat ride.
Tommy and I drove up to Lake Lanier to let Bubba meet his cousins Gracie and George. When we got there Cleg and Anne took us for a boat ride. Bubba was very vocal throughout the boat ride! And for Amanda who loves to see Gracie wearing her life preserver: Here’s George showing Bubba how …
