Well, it was back to work today after a tidy, tiny, very sweet mini-vacation w/ my dearest of dears.
We'd sorta planned on catching up w/ pals in mid-pub crawl outta town. No last minute flights, though, so we stayed home.
Highlights of zooming around E TN:
The salt mines prolly didn't miss me a bit. Certainly, I didn't miss them, nor shoveling, nor pickaxes neither.

Highlights of zooming around E TN:
- found a 10 acre lake we never knew existed
- took quite a few barn pics in the hollers around Walland
- learned about some crazy caverns to check out later
- saw some neeter-skeeter cannons emplaced in a park commemorating a Union Civil War fort that defended "loyal" East TN. (I tell ya, it's pretty freaky that 6-8 guns shooting 3-inch projectiles downhill 100 years ago was enough de-motivation to drive off 4500 soldiers out for the blood of 1/3 their number. Can't even imagine today's War.)
