We did it! We met at last, here are some of my pictures that are just pure fun from the trip we had. I had such a great time and we probley could have sat and talked all night with them all. I really d and enjoyed the oppertunity to meet Addy, Jim and Joe and hope one day we can all get together kids and all. LOL. That'll be wild.

Somehow I didn't get a picture of the first moment we met, but I did get several vids through out the entire trip so I'll be posting those too and some of the goofy pics we have.


All of us after dinner, I told them finally that I don't care what we do as long as it involves me and a cup of coffee.




During dinner


At the battlefield


Goofen off in the hotel room, LOL, Mouse will get me for posting this one.


OK Mouse got me back, a candid moment.


Tuesday Mouse and I took a trip/tour of cave in Racoon Mountain. It was very cool!

OK there's those piccys!

Here's mine:

I need the time to go through all my pics a bit better, but at first glance, here are some of the pics I found most interesting.


See the person that seems to be in the trees in the background. Here's a blown up of it.




A very interesting daylight orb.




OK in this next pic, me and Mouse where acting silly and we where asking for anyone present to please show up in the pics or let us know, then we check the view finder in the camera and laugh our butts off because of the, umm, placement of the orbs.. ha ha ha



Look in the TV

We are back and I am soooooooooo tired. It was sooooooooo awesome!! Soooo soooo awesome! I just wish we had more time since it flew by but time sure does fly when you are having fun. Can't wait to see you guys again!!

Well Ali and I left her work around midnight on Sunday after she got off work. We were talking and didn't even realize how far we drove because we were just chattering away and we were in Tennessee and figured we better get a hotel around 4am. We stayed in Lake City, Tennessee at Days Inn on Route 41 and had room 108.

When we got up it was soooo hot, so we had to go stop and get tank tops and both of us dorks forgot to bring our sandals and only had our sneakers with us, so we had to get something to wear with our skorts LOL

We finally get to Chickamauga Battlefield and Ady was standing in the middle of the parking lot waiting for us when we drove in the visitors center parking lot. Then we got pictures and stuff and then started in on the battlefield. The first place we went was where Ady got that awesome picture by the cannon balls. It was really neat and you could feel alot in that area. We all felt stuff in that area and seeing things in the woods. We all felt different things in this particular area. Headache, nausea, sharp pains in my stomach and shoulder etc. It was soooo cool! The entire battlefield was awesome and seeing things all over the place. I saw what looked like a soldier standing by the tree line as we drove by and then he disappeared. At one of the last stops Ali saw a full bodied soldier walk past us and right into the woods. Chickamauga was just incredible. The history and personal experiences was amazing. The pictures look extremely interesting and can't wait to get them all uploaded and see what Ady got also.

Then we all went out to eat dinner and hang out and talk. It was just so awesome. They had to get back to Alabama and couldn't stay overnight in town with us but we did manage to get Sepheus to smile and laugh alot

I am soooo glad we were able to come down and spend the day with you guys. It was so worth it even though it wasn't for a very long time. I can't wait until you guys come back again

Ali and I decided to get a hotel in Chattanooga which is about 10 minutes away right back over the Tennessee line. We stayed at the Super 8 on Route 41 and in room 108! All I can say about the room is that we had some dirty minded spirits and ohh I can't wait to see the pictures from the hotel! I also kept hearing two people talking in our room that night.

Yesterday we went to see if we could find the Chattanooga National Cemetery before leaving and we ended up seeing a sign for Raccoon Mountain Cave and stopped in there. That place is totally amazing!!! We took the 45 minute tour of the caves and absolutely totally incredible in there. Ali got the lovely pleasure of actually seeing and meeting those LOVELY CAVE CRICKETS that were down in the caves BUT at least they were just on the cavern wall instead of JUMPING at you LOL They also had gem panning so we did that and got some cool gemstones. This would of been so cool to go to if we knew about it before Ady. Its only about 5 minutes past Lookout Mountain.

After we left Raccoon Mountain, we drove past Lookout Mountain and Rock City and that road took us back into Georgia so I pulled over to turn around and we looked up and saw the flags and the lookout point of Lookout Mountain right above. It was cool to see even though it was from below! We drove around downtown Chattanooga and then found the Chattanooga National Cemetery and stopped in there. They had about 40,000 + graves there from the civil war up to the current Iraq War soldiers buried there. Its neat to see how they line up the gravestones to make designs when you look at them. They have a speed limit sign that says 18 miles per hour also hahahahaha and a cool kiosk grave locator too!

Then we had to start heading back home and Ali had to go potty somewhere in Kentucky and I saw a sign for Man of War that was 10 miles ahead and since I knew that stop from previous trips, decided to wait and stop up there. We get off the exit and its exit 108.

Ali had to stop at her work to pick something up so we stop there on the way home and her work is on Route 41. We walked into her work at 1:08am We walked into the restaurant and we both stopped and looked at each other and said "did you hear that"?? We both heard someone say "hey" but no one was there. She was in the back and I was sitting there talking to one of the girls and I kept looking back at the tables because I kept seeing someone out of the corner of my eye then I turned to look again and saw a man sitting at one of the back tables then he was gone. No customers were in the restaurant. So I finally saw someone there that wasn't really there like Ali does all the time! It was soo cool.

So anyone noticing all these signs? We stayed at two hotels, both in Tennessee. The first night in the beginning of TN on Rt 41 in room 108. Then the second night at the bottom of TN on Rt 41 in room 108. Got off at exit 108 in Kentucky to go potty and then arrive at Ali's work on Rt 41 at 1:08am

I am soooooooo tired and have to upload all these pics and got to see Ali's pics. They look incredible in the viewfinder so anxious to see what she got and also what Ady got.

It was the coolest road trip ever!!! And I still remember our three scottish words too hehehe! I am so happy we got to meet you guys

Doesn't it look like a perfect 5??

This was such a cute little house on the battlefield but the sun took over.

Forgot to add that Lynne got one of the coolest pics of my eyes I've ever seen, and just wanted to post it.

Thanks for sharing your trip with us...

It was an amazing day, we had such fun. My God, though it was so hot! While waiting for the girls we spent most of our time in the car with the air conditioning on after exhausting the visitor center. But after that, it was such fun to wander around chattering and taking pics. Dinner was fun too, teaching rude words lmao!

I promise to post photos after I get home, not sure why, but this pc refuses to behave properly now, Jim may have to reload windows. Hopefully, my boys haven't done anything bad to ours while we have been over here lol


These photos are really something! I will also look at these better on my own monitor, as this one is so dark.

Yep they taught us a few words

I can't wait to see your pics Ady!

I really wanted to stay overnight and it was touch and go as Jim had a headache. I wasn't keen on him driving all the way back like that. Ali gave him some pills and he said he was ok so we left. The reason we couldn't stay was because Jim's son said he only had Tuesday off work this week and they wanted to spend time together. It was only late Tuesday afternoon that we found out this had been changed. Arghh, so we could have stayed after all.

Oh no, you could have stayed afterall? That would have been fabulous! Next time you come here we will plan for a longer visit

fantastic pics ladies. The one with the odd placed orbs made me giggle. Y'all are so beautiful!

Awwh, these are good pics, and looks like yall had a great time. You will have to come a little further southeast next time....lol
