It is so interesting to watch friends and loved ones discover this new place I live in.
Yesterday, we did in-town errands: Farmer's Market (where they found the accents undecipherable), bank and post office ("they're all so friendly!"), voting at the courthouse, lunch at Sweet Creams, Walmart for water and dog treats. We went for a good long hike up back, took afternoon naps and made steak for dinner.
Today, we hiked in the morning on the far ridge, had lunch at El Pueblo, then drove up to the Cumberland Gap for more hiking, a quick tour of the museum, a stop at the scenic overlook, and home. They must think I'm a hiking fool.
Tomorrow, my friends go to the urban part of their vacation, visiting Ryan, Molly's son and Alexandra's half-brother, in Houston . It's been great to reconnect, laugh and enjoy each other's company. Even the dog seems happy to have more people in her house to play with.
Tomorrow, the bathroom project resumes and my friends go away. At least I had indoor facilities while they were here, and they are good enough friends to put up with the messiness the construction process entails. Thanks for a wonderful visit!
