Out in the Woods

Walking in the Woods on a very nice day.
This is our dog that adopted us about nine years ago.
This is our oldest grand daughter, Nichole, standing beside a tree that was hit by lightning, It seems as if the lightning made the bark of the tree be stripped off from the top of the tree to the bottom.


The bark that fell to the
ground was lying there and
was in a very long strip and
was very heavy.











We don't know if the tree was struck just once, or if it was hit quite a few times, but it was a very strange happening to run into in the woods.

Henderson, N.C. Car Show












































Aren't all these old cars terrific! I would like
to have any one of them. Can you imagine how
much these cars cost? Out of sight.
We did do a lot of walking. They had cars all
over the city of Henderson. There were so many
people looking at all the cars.
We were surprised to see four people in Henderson that we knew. The four usually
are at the local car shows that we attend. They did not bring their cars, but just came to look.
I would have more pictures on here, but what I didn't realize was that my camera
was in the "Movie Mode" and so I got quite a few movies, instead of pictures. I was wondering
why I couldn't hear the camera click when I pushed the button down. I guess you might be lucky that I didn't have any more pictures.
Next blog, the grandkids and their parents will be on. Talk to you later.

Things around here

Gardens and things

We are still getting red and yellow tomatoes
as well as red, yellow and green peppers from
our little garden. It won't be long before all of
them will be gone and the SNOW will be here.
I don't really want that, but the next four days
are supposed to be in the low 80 degrees! That
will be GREAT.
Bouncy Things with two of
our grand daughters and some friends!

More Cars


How about this? It is a convertible!
That is so cute. The roof just goes
down into the back seat.
This truck would be so nice to drive!
