Catching Up on Pictures

We arrived in Aurora, KY today. We plan to be here until Monday. We are next to the Land Between the Lakes region where we hope to do a little sight seeing during the next few days. I have a little time this afternoon to catch up on posting some pictures. The first one is a picture of the work truck that I drove most days at Ordway.  It was an old military surplus Dodge 4wd that worked well. Behind it is the new maintenance building that was just being completed when we left.


This is the old maintenance building that we started out at most days.



On the property was a old family cemetary that is being maintained by Ordway.




One of the other volunteers there became a good friend of ours. She was a very interesting lady with a big heart. The first two things that you would find out about her was that she was from Cuba and loved plants. We miss her smile and hope to run into her again.


Her two dogs, Molly and Phoebe would always run to greet us and would come over occasionally and come in for a treat.


The road from Florida to Georgia was surrounded with beautiful yellow and purple flowers for miles.


The campground in Albany, GA had an interesting bush with blooms that looked like a brush.




There were a few feathered friends across the road from our camp site.


As soon as Janice started feeding them, the crowd increased!



This one had quite a fancy top knot!



I can't remember if I have posted a picture of the Jeep after we got the rack mounted on it or not, but here it is.


As usual, when we got to Georgia, Mom's yard was beautiful!














 And the creek was peaceful.



Phil and Tristan found a snake in the back yard.


Rosie was determined to bite Mom's ear!


It was good to visit with all of the family again.










As usual, our time seemed too short there, but it was time to move on. The first night on the road we were in Gadsden, AL at the Noccalula Falls campground.  The falls are still beautiful.


And downstream is peaceful.


We suspected that we had a mouse in the motorhome and so we put down some sticky traps. Someone forgot about them and stepped in one this morning. This of course caused much laughter and almost no sympathy from my bride and she had to take pictures and make sure that it was included in the blog.
