Tennessee in a Nut Shell


Its our last couple days here :)
While we were here we got to see such amazing things.
We actually went and saw a place called Ruby Falls.
It was actually on the Border of Tennessee and Georgia.
We went underground and
saw all these cool nature made formations,
and at the end of the hike,
we saw a huge waterfall falling from the rocks above.






We also got the chance to see Rock City.
It was an awesome beautiful experience.
You actually walk on this trail
and a few times you have to squeeze between tight rocks.
But it takes you up the mountain so you can see 7 states.
Along the way you see all these cool rock formations.







The picture above is a waterfall at Rock City
that you actually climb the mountain and cross over.




This part of Tennessee is really pretty, and worth seeing.
I would recommend it to everyone if they are in this part of the country. :)



We got to see our first live bald eagle up close also,
IT WAS AWESOME..
and they have such pretty eyes.
I am now very thankful
we have such a beautiful bird to be our national bird.
instead of what it was going to be..
A TURKEY!

the above picture is not one that I took,
I only photo edited..
but wanted to show you how pretty their eyes really are..
mama mia. :)


We went to see the Tennessee Aquarium.
We heard it was #1 in the nation.
But it wasn't all that great.
We had a great time of course though. :)


How cool is this sidewalk :)







On our walk to the aquarium,
we saw a way cool brick bench.
IT WAS AWESOME!
and of course, I HAD to take a picture of it :)


We also had to drive downtown a couple of times.
It was kind of old,
but it was really cool
because some buildings were way awesome.
like for example:





We thought it was cool how it was named "Dome Building"..
That's our building :)
I didn't get the top of the building
because I was trying to get the words..
but you cant even read it..
If you wanna try its in-between the stop lights :)



Also, Fielding would kill me
if I didn't post pictures of the dome..
sooo..




I dont have any pictures of it finished yet..
But where you see the wood squares,
they took those off
and are now laying tile over the two colors.
I am sure Fielding will make me post the final pictures.
Yep that is about it in a nut shell :)
We will post about our drive to Louisiana
when we get there.

The Candy Corn Monster?

So, we are still in Tennessee but got permission from two people to leave, so now we are just waiting for the final word on where we are supposed to leave to. I am overly excited. I can not wait to get out of this hotel room :) But.. Yesterday Fielding was trying to be a nice little husband and get me out of the house a little bit. We went to Jo-anns craft store and looked around at the fleece because we both wanted new blankets :) Anyways, we couldn't find any that was big enough so we just ended up going to walmart getting some treats and then coming back to the hotel and watching some modern family. While I was downloading modern family on itunes, this is what came around the corner making a type of growling sound..



Isn't it hilarious. Maybe its just funnier to me because I get no humor during the days except for my own jokes. I just think its so funny how he used to be so shy, and still is very shy in front of people.. but when we are alone the freak comes out.. I just love it :) But I told him that the picture just makes him look like he is saying "Look no hands" haha.
