    Pics!!! On My Drive To Work This Morning...

    While driving across Veterins Bridge. I looked to my left and thought WOW! That is a beautiful sunrise... I bet if SJ were here he'd get some pics... So I made a couple of right turns, walked onto the Walnut Street Bridge (no cars allowd) and snapped these pics.

    Looking up the TN River










    Looking at the Hunter Art Museum

    I just love it that you stopped and took a moment to capture the beauty of the sun rising. So many people are too busy and preoccupied to appreciate these things.

    That's just it. This time I stopped and took the pic. I do mentally take pics and point out to my kids things like this as much as possible. Kind of cool. Now every morning my kids say stuff llike.... Wow that's an awesome sunrise.... Wow that fog on the river looks like cotton... They are noticing these things now.

    Later on after lunch I was reading a local online news paper. I noticed a familiar name. Friend of our family, 45, aneurysm, dead. At 40 I am finally realizing we should live each day as if it's our last. Don't want to bring anybody down. Lets all enjoy life. Don't sweat the small stuff.

    I thought she looked familiar. Just to let you know Jenay, the grass in Kentucky no longer that green, it's all brown now.

    Something different than she has ever known and a change . . . understandable that she would be apprehensive. What about Will? I would think it would be harder on him.

    The original mansion has been there as long as I can remember. I'm sure 100 years or so. The new structure was completed last year.

    Yes- it was great! Nice to see you too. I'm finding out every day that this place is so wonderfully small!

    Wow...gorgeous pictures RO. Did anyone ever tell you, you do good work?

    Jdarg, I see a precious little girl. I can't wait to meet her. I am very glad that Will and Kate are adjusting to their new digs and school. I am glad you are as well.

    Now, get that damned piece of pumpkin pie off of your avatar, you are making me hungry for some.

    Those are beautiful RO, thank you! Love the Nooga ...we will have to visit soon.

    I love that area where the musuem is, there are several nice little art galleries, boutiques and a great little coffee shop. Don't forget the tow truck musuem a few blocks over! Anyone that can make it would really enjoy it.
