Look Familiar???


Bridge
Originally uploaded by mmp52.
Today's JG-TC Your Best Shot is the same view. My picture is taken later no leaves on the trees. Anyway it looks like we were standing in the same spot. After the power company did the big clean up it is easier to go under the bridge.

Trip to the City!


Amy & parents
Originally uploaded by mmp52.
Amy has been in Tennessee 3 weeks and already has that southern hospitality. She gave us a tour of where she works, Amber's new condo, Centennial Park, The Parthenon, downtown Nashville and her community. We had a delicious lunch at P.F. Chang's China Restaurant. To top of the evening she surprised us with tickets for a night at the Grand Ole Opry.
Thanks Amy for showing us such a good time.

Amish Friendship Bread


Friendship-Bread
Originally uploaded by mmp52.
Alison gave me a start to this bread, so far I have made 10 loaves. The bread starter sure does multiply. She forgot to tell me not to ask people if they want some, just give it to them and run! It does taste good, we especially like the chocolate chip variety.

Multitasking


Maybe John should have put a patent on this idea. Maybe not, it could be considered child endangerment by today's standards.
