Trip to the Mainland - Part 2

After the 2 week visit with my sister and her family, Rach, Phillip (my nephew), and I headed for TN to see Mom.  We landed in Nashville late at night and got a hotel near the airport.  The next morning Mom picked us up and the fun began.  We started out shopping in Nashville, then we stopped by my friend, Shanee's house, and finally moseyed on to Mom's house in west TN.  While we were at Mom's, we tended to chickens and Smokey (the horse), went shopping at antique stores, caught lightening bugs, went for a walk to pick wildflowers (& thought we were going to get chased by a donkey!), ate some dang good Southern food (at Mom's and a BBQ joint), and just hung out around the house.  I really did hate to leave Mom and Mike (aka P-pop)....and TN.

On this TN, trip Rach did miss a couple treatments due to the travel schedule.  So, for the entire 3 week trip, I don't think that's too bad. 

Just like on our visit to my sister's.....I have a bunch of pics to share!
