Ooops....I forgot to cyber shop!

And now my chance is gone for another year.  Thankfully, my shopping is finished and the decorated tree is standing tall.  So, I can sleep in or relax over another cup of coffee or play with photos from a recent vacation.

A few weeks ago, we decided that  a long relaxing weekend was in store for us.  Found a beautiful Victorian-style bed and breakfast for the layover and then set out for three fun-filled days.

The curves were short and steep and in abundance!

Granny's river was just as I remembered it even after all these years

A view across The Little Buffalo River.  In her later years, Granny married and moved to the beautiful home place of Papa Claude Matlock  There once was a swinging bridge across the river at just about this point. 
As a child, I remember being terribly frightened
of the bridge
swinging to and fro.

  1. We love the Buffalo River area. David and the girls spent many a long weekend playing on the river as the girls grew up.
