Fun at Mama’s

Once upon a time in the days of my childhood, I loved Fairy Tales. 

While helping Mama Trudy a little this afternoon, I found in a box she had, my fairy tales book.  I couldn’t get my camera fast enough.  The front cover is missing and there is nothing to hold on the back cover.100_3528100_3530100_3529100_3531100_3532100_3533100_3536What a blast from my past.  I can’t believe some of the things Mama Trudy still has with her and that she moved them from Oklahoma!

This evening, the three of us met my brother, Jon and wife, Carolyn, and granddaughter Sophie in Lookout Valley for dinner.  Every time we travel the twenty miles to Chattanooga, we pass this sign.100_3539

It looked vicious, but we only got a little shower while we were eating.100_3545

This is a building on the Covenant College campus on Lookout Mountain ridge.100_3549

Right out of yesteryear…. except for the utility pole and wires.100_3552

This is my favorite house on U.S. 11.  What?  It’s for sale??100_3553It looks to be in really great shape.100_3553-1

Do you remember me telling you about the South Carolina blackberries?100_3554

They are soooo good.100_3558

I forgot to tell you about the sweet plums we got.  Also, scrumptious.100_3561

After dinner at Casa Raul, we went back to Jon and Carolyn’s for coffee and ice cream and visiting.  Our time here is quickly coming to an end, too quickly.

The berries would make a great cobbler I bet, makes me hungry just looking at them...
