Deer, Backroads, Barn, Old Home and Just a Vine

Morning all.

I went to Lowes today to pick

up a few things I needed, wanted

to go to Wally World also, Dollar

Tree and Goodwill. I made it 

to Lowes and Goodwill. I am still

dragging and issues with this stone

is wearing me out, so I 

was really tired after my two stores. 

I love driving backroads, always have but

most times I want to have my 

big camera and of course I did 

not have it when I took 

that BACKROAD turn.

I saw four of these babies today.

One road I went down was really

fun. It was called "something Spring Creek",

yep, don't remember the first name.

Started out as a paved road, 

narrow but so many of them in

rural TN are. Then it got more

narrow, turned to gravel, then dirt,

then it ended right in the creek.

No where to turn around so I had

to back out a bit before I 

could get the SUV going in 

the correct direction. 

FUN!

Funny thing, traveling

another road I also came

to the end of the road and 

had to drive in the water to 

get to the other side.

The thing I have learned here in 

rural TN.,  is that if a narrow

road says LANE. It is a narrow

route to a home or several homes.

Usually gravel, or it starts out as 

paved and turns to gravel. 

Becareful, if its a route that 

says ROAD, that can be iffy.

Usually not as narrow as a lane,

but also usually starts paved and 

can turn to gravel. If it stays paved, 

its a road. If it turns to gravel, it 

is not a road, its a lane. 

Traveling backroads is so fun, you 

see so much cool things.

I loved this barn.

Thought this was a barn but

it was actually an old house.

Back of the house.

Just shooting along the way..

We have a lot of this vine around. 

Years ago as a child, heading to Ga. to 

visit family one of us kids asked mom

what the name of this vine was.

Not knowing she said, "just a vine:...

so all my life till I was an adult myself,

this vine was called Just a Vine, however,

it is Kudzu. Wicked vine, takes over!

I still catch myself calling it 

Just a Vine.

haha
