I ain't even gonna try to catch up... catsup? Ketchup?
The Wife and I had a very good whirlwind weekend. After the surgery and trips and home health and the kids and the jobs and the contractors, well, we've not a had a moment to ourselves in months...
We were scheduled to meet dome folks in Nashville, TN Saturday at noon to pick up our new breeding ram.
Friday was a pretty normal day, except we took off work a touch early and came home to pack for the trip. We had discussed trying to make the trip in a day... 16 hours round trip... we knew it was doable, but would be miserable. We decided to leave Friday evening and drive until we felt like stopping.
On the way, The Wife like to play navigator, and she has taken to searching for items of interest along our route... taken to... we never used to have the time to do things like that, and I really enjoy taking the time to do it. Of course, she allows me to stop at vape shops on the way, too.
The first stop - outside of dinner - was at an art installation in Brownsville, TN called The Mindfield.
I could go on and on, but it'd likely be better if you looked it up, yourselves...
Brownsville, TN - Billy Tripp's Mindfield
We got into Nashville about 2 am and stayed in a Knight's Inn undergoing remodeling. Kinda nice, but I could still detect some age in her bones. I ain't saying what we did in the motel.
We slept in just a bit and grabbed yogurt from the breakfast bar. We then checked out, loaded up and headed to the Parthenon.
Awesome!
The park around the Parthenon is pretty impressive, too... we found this to be of interest, considering the day...
The lighting is bad... overcast day... it's a monument depicting the women's suffrage march in Tennessee...
We met with the transport where and when we were supposed to, and took posession of our new breeding ram. Meet Cowboy...
The drive home was rather grueling. The Wife and I like to get out and stretch and offer water to our passenger every 2 hours... guess who managed to find a vape shop just off the interstate every 2 hours?
We got home at about 8:30 pm, and got Cowboy tucked into his new abode... then we collapsed...
Sad thing is, I visited around 8 vape shops on the trip and couldn't find the one item I wanted...
This morning, I'm placing an order...
