This was the moon when we got home

We took a day trip in the pony after church today. We drove down to Bell Buckle, TN and ate at the http://bellbucklecafe.com/ The food was very good. Bell Buckle is a very small community, but very popular. There are only about 8-10 stores on the street and they were mostly antique stores or gift shops. There is a general store and ice cream shop that I was at back in the 70's with a friend of mine. At that time it was the only thing thriving in this small community. http://www.bellbucklechamber.com/bluebirdstory.html After we ate we drove some back country roads. Buddy had no idea where we were headed I just would dial in a city on the GPS and off we went. We did hit a few good twisty turny roads. Went through cities I have heard about and never thought I would be there. It was a beautiful day in the low 80's and we took advantage of it with the top down on the pony.
