Just Driving...

I know, I know...With the price of gas who can afford to drive, but then I ask myself how much my sanity is worth to me and that by far outweighs anything gas could cost...

So...I drove around for about 4 hours the other day and enjoyed myself immensely and enjoyed being by myself...words can't express it. Anywho, on my little venture of the twisting, winding roads of Tennessee...I took some pictures and thought I would share them with you. Little pieces of beauty...at least through my eyes. These are the roads and other things of interest that grace the countryside near the ranch/farm that I work on from time to time.





























This is just so random, but I was driving down a little road and came upon this..I don't know if someone camps here or if it's just a place to rest tired feet...whatever...I thought it was cool, so here ya go...

Riding the Barrel!

I have told you all about working at the farm, well yesterday I took T (my 5 year old...he just got out for summer break) out there with me. We had a blast. I bought a memory card for my camera and took it with me...This is one of the videos I took. S and N finally talked T into riding on the bull training barrel, he had a blast. The guy with the cowboy hat (N) runs the farm/ranch and the other guy is my brother-in-law... S. They also talked me into getting up there, but I wasn't about to let anyone video that. LOL!

While I'm not a huge fan of country music, this is one of my favorite country songs and I thought it fitting as he was really afraid to get up there, but did it anyway. I know it's not the best shooting, but I would say not too terrible for a first try. I'm also still figuring out all the ins and outs of editing video...anyway I thought I would see what you all think of it anyway.

Water Fun...

My Internet has been off and on the last few days, the best I can figure is there is something wrong with my modem. I am supposed to be connected all the time, but it's been luck of the draw for about five days. Tomorrow I'm taking the modem to the Cable company for a replacement. That should fix it, I hope.

We had a blast yesterday kayaking, the river was splendid, even if it was too crowded for my taste. The weather was beautiful and we visited our favorite little waterfall, a wonderful little secluded spot where the water splashes down from about 70 feet above and a cool breeze blows in from the river, the brush is just thick enough to make it a very (yes, you lovely pervs, that's what I mean :) private place.

All in all a spectacular day to be out in the sun and water! I wish we had a camera, when we get one I promise to take a picture of our water fall and post it. Hope you are all having a wonderful summer so far...
