Day 2 ~ almost twice the time

Day Two dawned after an evening of laughter

and a night of rest...

the view from our hotel room

 Breaking of Dawn

I did have to climb a steep embankment to get the picture

but it was well worth it ~ never crossed my mind

about how I was going to come down

flip-flops, wet grass and a steep incline

just don't go together

I made it safely as my mother-in-law

 watched from the hotel window

~~~

You did read the title of the post?



map quest did not like the route

we mapped ~ it was adamant

about staying on the much larger roads

Approximate four hour trip

calculated up to a 8 hour trip  :-)

but, I cannot tell you how many times

we said,

 "we would not have seen this if we had not come this way"

a beautiful maple tree

in the yard of the church below

New Providence Presbyterian Church

Founded 1786

Maryville, TN



notice the engraving above the doors

Enter Into His Gates With Thanks

And Into His Courts With Praise

we were in the town of Maryville, TN

and I snapped this one out of the passenger side window

such a beautiful firestation

and "yes, I was driving"



didn't take long for her to catch the fever

of snapping pictures of churches

Seventh Day Adventist Church outside of Maryville, TN

just a small pic relating to my next post

~Reaching the Destination

and you will not want to

miss the next post either

~On the Way Home

it took two nights stay on the way back  :-)
