Tonight, Body Guard and I went to Unicoi State Park Lodge to eat dinner supper. The buffet was so fresh and abundant. They always have fresh trout and vegetables and a dessert table that is quite huge.
It was raining very heavy until after dinner and then the sun came out with the mountains steaming as we strolled along the grounds and the woods.
We met some nice folks while I took pictures outside and looked at the beautiful flowers.
Unicoi's dining room has always had many quilts exhibited and, well, as you can see in the pictures, the prices are quite pricey for a souvenier for travelers. We are locals and have seen them before but I got my camera and started snapping pics after we ate our good-eats.
He waits patiently always while I'm on an adventure.
See the smile.
After the price though.......
And so the camera starting snapping.
What a name for a pattern!
In the meantime, he's analyzing people.
This is one of my favorites....nope, can't get any of these quilts...evah. The prices are quite high. LOL
This Oak Leaf pattern one is my second most favorite.
Then, the next level at the bottom past the other side of the BIG fireplace has several other quilts.
Although I had enough dessert to hang from the rafters, I didn't for these pics :)
Hold on, let me just bend way over and grab on to the lights and get this close-up!
Walking down to the second floor and then out where the rain finally stopped and within a few minutes the sun struggled to beam through the clouds.
The Lantana is abundant here.
Not a drop of rain wasted......
AHHH, sun!
We stroll through the grounds.
I did not once hear the word S_N_A_K_E, thank goodness, on this walk.
This is the swing where we sit and talk about things like "remember when......"
I can only say it was a steamy Sunday evening.
