the fourth day of christmas

We are still in Huddleston. I hope to get to Lynchburg by eleven. We shall see. Trish is wrestling with a cold, so we are moving slowly this morning. Yesterday we went to T&G for breakfast...eggs, biscuits with sausage gravy, hashbrowns...you know the stuff. Diet foods. Vegan cuisine. Trish's family lives near the diner, so they know everyone. Trish went to school with the owner's kids. Others have worked there. So it is always a reunion when we go. We spent the afternoon with Lynn, Trish's uncle. He's a kind old country bachelor who likes to tell me the news from his Baptist church. He plays the piano there. If you were at our wedding, you heard him play. He plays it hard and fast...and all by ear. I always tease him about it. He's quite good, but he's a great sport and takes the teasing well. The evening was spent with Todd and Emily. They moved here from Chicago. Todd's family is from Lynchburg, so this was moving back home for them. We had dinner at Smith Mountain Lake, played games, took photos with the new digital camrea, and watched the stars from their back deck. It's like living in a planetarium. Well, I'll post again from my mother's place. Y'all have a good day!
