YOU KNOW YOUR FROM THE SOUTH.....

Last Saturday, Allen and I attended the annual RC Cola and Moon Pie Festival held in Bell Buckle. We had always wanted to go, but it seemed we would always just miss it or have other plans. This year, it was on my *"Bucket List". We had a great time and plan to go back next year.
It was overcast when we first arrived. We enjoyed the
"cool" weather for about an hour before it was absolutely blazing.


Allen had to make a pit stop as soon as we arrived. We had been to
Cracker Barrel with Eric for breakfast and all that coffee....


If you didn't like your seats in the stadium,
you could just pick up your bale and move it.

Mike and Lisa met us there. So much fun when family are friends too. See those yellow arm bands? Allen and I sneaked in and didn't pay. Not really. We didn't know you were supposed to pay a "suggested" donation of $1. We went back and paid. After all it was for
Nashville Flood Victims Fund.

Found this sampler in an antique shop. Of course, it caught my eye
because it was done by Molly in 1798. I do love that name.

Watching the "parade".
After a couple hours, we were ready to go. We decided to stop by Miller's Grocery for lunch instead of getting a food at the festival. Wise choice. It was delicious and cool.


Both couples decided to share a meal so we could get dessert. Our eyes being bigger than our stomachs, we all got our own dessert. Ugh. Too much, but delicious.
Next time you see Mike, ask him why he eats all the pecans off the top of his Pecan Pie first.
*Next time, I will tell you about my "Bucket List".
