Happy Sunday!!!

We had a rather crazy Saturday simply by going to the store and to the Blue Ridge Parkway!  Everyone seemed to think that they had to drive 100 miles an hour today and traffic was very heavy.  Mom has never figured out why everyone is going so fast and where are they going!  It's bad on the Parkway...it's so pretty and everyone is missing the scenery by flying down the road.  Not us....mom doesn't like to go fast because so many critters are just waiting to jump into the lanes...not to mention that the Park Rangers are very active this time of the year and watching thank goodness.  We appreciate them so much.   They do a wonderful job.  (She admires them and wanted to be one decades ago but didn't get the chance).

The crazy part started when mom got gas and drove off without the gas cap.   Great.  She went back to see if it was at the station (very embarrassed).  It wasn't...it was on top of the Jeep.  That's about as wild and crazy as it gets for us except for the traffic.  Really...what's the hurry!  

Here we are waiting at a store with a drive in window. 



These are the rocks!  Actually it's two big ones and I love to climb them!


I'm always happy here.


Mom thinks I'm kin to a mountain goat the way I love to climb.


You can bet one thing...I'm the only one climbing.  Mom is standing firmly on the ground!


What's that smell?  I know someone has been here.


This is a view from the Rocks.  We live right down there!


Heading on back home.

One last stop at an overlook and all I can think about is this.


Have a wonderful day!
Lots of Love to All!!!

Mom is not much of a freeway/interstate driver herself. She tends to get very lost very easily too!

Our mom is not a fast driver either, Holly. She loves the back roads and slower speeds best. We're glad you got to climb your rocks!

We're glad the gas cap was still there. Mom is happy that the gas cap on her truck is attached so she never looses it.

Oh yes, we too are very happy that the gas cap is attached to our vehicle = the Momster has been known to put things on top and drive off. Even the Dadster does that - he put his glasses up there one day and he drove off with his sunglasses on. Luckily a very alert driver behind him spotted them as they flew off the top of the car and picked them up. Then chased Dad down the road to return them - silly Dadster.

Such a pretty ride you have there - peeps need to slow down and appreciate the beauty of nature!

Leaving the cap on the roof is something I would do. Too funny. Glad you had a good trip except for all those crazy people that were driving so fast. Glad you got home safely.Take care.
