We've been to a family reunion in Tennessee. Home for one day and then to Denver for a family wedding. I have a lot to say on these topics but will leave you for now with a pic from a view from our hotel suites', front room down in TN. It is of Lake Barkley or AKA the Tennessee River. (Notice the tug and barge in the photo) The State Park we were in was near the now under water, Fort Henry, of Civil War fame.
The other pic was thru the windshield of our car on last weeks trip to the foothills of the Rockies. A storm was moving in. (click to enlarge.)

Click to enlarge isn't workin' for me today. But they are nice pictures even in their small state. Glad you had a safe trip, well I assume so since you're back to the farm. And none too soon I heard the horses talking....
Yep Lanny, you're correct. My click to enlarge doesn't work either.
Did you bump into the Crocketts? Back in the 50s, I had a hat like Daveys. TN is a pretty state.
Sorry I couldn't locate the lawnmower! :)
Can't wait to hear all about your trips. Nice pictures!
Hold down the ctrl key and roll the mouse middle roller up to enlarge the pictures.
Storm clouds moving in make me panic.
Nebraska farmers officiating at weddings make me panic also. Yes, I've been to Ralph's and know "the rest of the story". Sounds like you stole the show.
Glad you are back and everyone apparently had a good time!
LOve the pictures of your garden area!
Hope you got those dust buffaloes rounded up before they wrecked the place Cliff.
Hey Cliff, you have good questions.
And yes, we all tried really hard not to mess up too badly while you were gone.

Thanks Jim. Back in the old days that info would have been harder to come by.
Thanks for the visit and everything. Thank bottom picture pretty well sums up our summer.
Ralph
Largest US city by square miles is Jacksonville, FL. (Two cents worth).
Glad you're back. Saw the wedding report on Ralph's blog. Wish I was there. Looking forward to your side of the creative event.
Oh yeah. I was gonna mow, but couldn't find the gas can, so...
GOrgeous pocs cliff.......hope you had a nice time at both events! Just wanted to stop by and say HI!
Cliff,
Good seeing you and the rest of the clan in Tennessee. Your suite where you shared the great food with us overlooked Kentucky Lake. If you had another room on Lake Barkley, I suspect Marilyn is going to be very unhappy.
Cousin Dave
Beautiful photos, Cliff. Wish TN was a bit shorter drive from here than it is.
WOW Cliff ~ Mrs. LZ and I were just in Colorado too. As well as Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. Seems like we may have passed each other on the road at least somewhere on our trips? ~ Glad to see you back and I hope you got all that corn in the silos before TODAY! (And I'm not talking just about "that humor" either)! ~ jb///
Beautiful!
fantastic blog.
