SPRING IN TENESSEE -- Come and Gone!!

 Winter was kind to to us in Tennessee. The only bad thing is even though it came early, it didn't stay long enough. But while it was here, it was spectacular. Words can't express the grandeur of the display, so I will just say it with photos

Magnolia

Cheekwood arboritium near the mission home has become one of our favorate places to visit.  We liked it so well we bought a years pass. 

Dogwood - Pink and White


Real Flowers of the Mission
This is Sister Ratvukivuki from Fiji and Sister Valentine, some of the best missionaries we have.  I want to give them a hug every time I see them but rules won't let me.
Redbud
                         Dogwood

Dogwood and Redbud are my favorite trees and now I know why.  My only problem wad I couldn't take enough photos.  I kept seeing more trees.




I think tiis blog is full and I have more photos (lots more but I won't bore yoy with all of them.)  Look for Spring Flowers part 2

Winter Is Here--Or Is It?

This is the greatest winter ever.  We had seven snowflakes the other day and the schools called a snow day and everyone stayed home.  If winter does come in ernist, I will call a "snow day".  Here, there are roads and the slippery slope they call the edge of the road--nothing in between. Just smooth road and death, nothing in transitrion.

Maybe their is no winter in Tenessee and it is still fall.  Ok, then, lets see some fall photos of this parft of the country.  Tennessee does fall well.

We are looking forward to spring with the dogwood, redbud, and all the other flowers the south is famous for.  We took a trip up from Georga a few years ago in the spring and really enjoyed the spri;ng display.
