Welcome!
Greg and I had a very busy Labor Day weekend (as I'm sure was the same for many of you), so I'm running behind on my projects, including this blog post!
This is a post that I believe you will really enjoy. It's about a place, a town, that you may or may not have ever visited. If you haven't yet been there, you might want to put it on your to-do list of places you'd like to go and see.
The name of this town is Abingdon which is located in Southwest Virginia.
Abingdon is beautiful, very picturesque.
It is the epitome of art and culture.
Which can be seen on the streets...
as well as at the annual...
which is held in August.
There are high-quality arts and crafts galore.
There are several refreshment stands with delicious food.
A strawberry smoothie, anyone?
Right next door to the festival is the elegant Martha Washington Inn...
which is also known as...
The grounds are lovely-
You might want to just relax and enjoy,...
the sights and sounds of Abingdon,
Later, you could have a tasty supper there, and even spend the night in one of the beautiful rooms.
Before turning in, however, be sure to take in one of the excellent professional productions at the famous Barter Theatre which is just a stone's throw from The Martha.
The Barter Theatre
The Barter has some wonderful productions. "Wait Until Dark" which starred Audrey Hepburn in the movie version is coming soon. Greg and I are planning to go see "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" in October which is one of my very favorite tales of all time. The ad said it was for children of all ages. That's good, because Greg and I are just overgrown children at heart.
