We had so looked forward to our son Greg's family visiting. We had planned for weeks of things to do when they came. At the top of our list was to take them to "The Birthplace of Country Music" in Bristol, Virginia. A couple of calls assured me they would be open. But when the date rolled around, like so many places, they were closed.
The kids arrived late one evening, and we enjoyed our visit so much, especially since we hadn't seen them since we'd moved from Oklahoma several months ago. They loved our digs, and we spent the evening reminiscing, even viewing a home movie from when everyone was little and even the grandparents were young.
Meeting for lunch the next day, we found our favorite place open, and thankfully not many diners were there, due to the virus scare. Taking in the sights of Jonesborough, Tennessee's oldest town, kept us busy until they invited us to see their AIRBNB where they were staying. Their accommodations were beautiful and luxurious! Everything was spacious and spotless and very tastefully decorated!
Visiting the next day, we enjoyed Granddaughter Allison's tasty lunch of chicken 'n' noodles with diced cantaloupe and green grapes. With the local great-grands out of school, they added to the chatter and camaraderie, even taking a walk where photos were snapped and admired. Pizza and conversation followed, Howard woke up from his nap, and soon we were on the way home, stopping for Dunkin' Donuts to sustain us until the next adventure tomorrow!
