A Sunday drive with a bit of history

Yesterday my husband and I decided to take a drive. We took back roads hoping to see things we hadn't seen before. We found ourselves in Dayton, Tn. Dayton is where the famous Scopes trial was held. It was also known as the monkey trial. You can read more about it here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scopes_Trial

Here is a picture of the courthouse. In the basement is a nice museum.










The tree colors weren't as spectacular as they have been in years past but we did get to see some pretty leaves. I didn't get any pictures of them during our trip but here are a few that we can see from our home. I wouldn't trade this view for anything! We have woods all around our house.









The previous pictures were taken with my phone. Here are a few taken with my camera.










I was being lazy this morning. I stayed in bed longer than I usually do and got up to a phone call. It was a friend wanting some dish towels! I don't know if I have any in the colors she wants. If I don't that is okay. I have a warp on the Schacht already so I will only have to go and get them woven up.I will have to go to the studio and see. This was a wonderful way to start the day!
