What to Do, What to Do...

 091

Tomorrow's the big day.  The Ranchette Reunion begins tomorrow around dark-thirty...Too late to make the scene at in Floyd. They'll be sick of riding in a car anyway...That gives me Saturday and Saturday night to give them a good taste of Franklin and Floyd Counties.

Help! Where to go, What to do?

I know we'll have to go see Joe's puppies.  Betsy One is already talking about how she really shouldn't get another dog but...

puppies are just sooo cute!  Half Blue Tick Hound, half Yellow Lab...and the sweetest dog in the known Universe to boot.

Maybe we'll drop by the White Lightnin' Museum.

Maybe we'll wander around Floyd.

But surely I'm overlooking something unusual and wonderful...any ideas?

Day 5 at the Cabin- Unexplained Mountain Mysteries

All right, now somebody has to know the answer to this...

Why are teapots and coffeepots (2 so far, but there could be more) nailed to a couple of fence posts around the old home site?

Look-



And let's not forget the iron in the tree episode. I'm telling you, this place is full of weird, unexplained things.

So if you have any earthly idea why any of these things would be where they are, or what they were used for, I'd love to hear it. Would it help if I told you an old moonshiner lived here? And that he raised bees? (So he wouldn't have to explain needing to buy all that sugar for 'shine.)


Here's the critter hole of the day...big and spooky...
