A Good Weekend

We had a great weekend. Our friends Don and Illa visited us and we a great time.

On Friday night we had our pot luck picnic. We had a big crowd in attendance and the food was great, as usual. This picture shows me waving the flags as we were organizing the picnic tables.

On Saturday we had a late breakfast, then took our visitors for a tour of the area. As part of our tour we went to visit James and Elizabeth at Telford, TN. We had a good visit and ended up a Bob Evans for a good supper together.

On Sunday we took this picture before Don and Illa left to return to Knoxville. (I used the tripod that Dad gave me and the timer on my camera for this shot.) IMG_2012
