Final good-byes and on the road for sure

Today we are in Hermitage, Tennessee, at Seven Points Campground. This is a Corps of Engineers campground and possibly one of the prettiest places we have camped. This is the view from the windshield tonight. It was prettier earlier when the sky was red, but I'm never ready to take pics.

If there is anyone reading this that isn't on my facebook page, here is a pic I put there today. I like it, but then     I like our RV.

 

We left the last of the family on Sunday night. We took Tyler to baseball practice.

where he had a triple, two doubles and a single. Don't let the pants to his knees fool you. He's a slugger.
Then we were sent off with a wonderful meal of Doug's famous smoked shoulder, prepared the Lexington way. What a great way to leave family, with a meal that we enjoy making and sharing. Thanksgiving isn't any better than this.

I read Tyler the beginning of chapter book and Larry put Grant down for the night. One of the sweetest things we do with the boys that we will miss so much.

I couldn't help but think of how sad my mother used to be when Peggy, my older sister would leave Lenoir to return to Florida. Mother, who seldom showed any sad emotion, would nearly cry. I felt the same way. This journey is exciting, but I will miss my family and friends. I know that, but I am grateful   that modern communication will keep us close.

So please post something here about what you are doing. I'm not putting up earth-shattering info so I want to hear what you are doing, too.

And, lastly, are you registered? Have you asked a neighbor or friend? This is beginning to be like that old question, "Are you saved?" This is a pic I took at the convention when I got to see and hear the First and Second Ladies. Not a good pic, but, hey, I was there. That counts for something, right?
