A few weeks ago, Greg and I went for a visit to East Tennessee which we thoroughly enjoyed.
The main purpose of our trip was to celebrate the birthdays of three family members.

The celebration was at Nick and Lisa's where we had an end-of-summer cookout, complete with...
hot dogs...
birthday cake and...
ice cream sundaes.
A great time was had by all!
Greg and I spent the night in nearby Jonesborough, Tennessee in the "Jonesborough Bed and Breakfast," which is a "quaint turn of the century Queen's cottage...", to quote the website.
It is the number one B&B in Jonesborough, according to "TripAdvisor."
It even has a resident dog, Tori Amos.
The decor is bohemian.
The innkeeper, Brian Mills, who makes you feel at home right away, is from London, and speaks French and Spanish, as well as English.
The large Continental breakfast was delicious, especially the granola with fresh fruit and milk.

After breakfast, Greg and I headed to downtown Jonesborough, the oldest town in Tennessee, where we...
explored around town which was all dressed up in its fall finery.
Jonesborough is well-known as the "Storytelling Capital of the World." It holds the "National Storytelling Festival" every October.
After a bit of shopping (including finding Christmas gifts!), we had a wonderful lunch at one of our favorite places, "Main Street Cafe."
Does this look good, or what! It was!
A little later, we stopped by "J J's" for some ice cream. So good on a warm autumn day!
You really ought to try Jonesborough. Bet you'd love it!
On my 9/18/16 blog post, I discussed things that I've found that made me feel happier and more positive.
On this post, I'd like to add to that list-
Reading something inspirational, like Rhonda Byrne's new book How the Secret Changed My Life. This book is, to quote the ad, "...how everyday people completely transformed their lives by applying the teachings of The Secret." This book got five stars on "Amazon." Might be a book worth looking into!
Positive thought: "We are the creators of our universe."-"The Secret"
Thanks for visiting! Until Sunday, October 23, 2016, Becky
