Our first excursion

It's been a long time since I've updated. I apologize. I've been pretty busy, mostly trying to stay healthy.

Not much has really happened, just classes, yoga, cleaning my room, and that's about it. Yesterday though we very fun. Ryan and I decided to take our first day trip in East Tennessee. We had picked up so brochures from outside of the Bookstore and we just randomly chose one. We picked Jonesborough, TN. It's about 15 minutes from Johnson City, so not a bad drive.

At first we got on Highway 11 east and we actually pasted the Historic District of Jonesborough, but we kept on driving. It was beautiful. It was pretty nice weather, the sun was shining and it was a nice temperature of 73 degrees. We saw the mountains from a distance and lots of farms. Eventually we turned around and decided to take one more detour before we got back to Jonesborough. We stopped at the Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park. It was cool. Well, the little fishing spot was cool. We also found a place to go camping there. It was nice to be outside.

When we got to Jonesborough we found that it was a strip of stores and that was about it, but it was what we wanted to visit the entire day. We parked and walked down the street. It was great exploring the antique shops, galleries, and other specialty stores. It was so quiant.

That was our day. It doesn't sound like much, but we had a lot of fun. I will upload pictures today. Just click on the link that says College Pictures on the right. Our next expedition will be a corn mae the third weekend in October. :)

Question of the Day (Answer this in a comment please): Ryan and I had been on a movie rush lately. We even have a book to list titles to see or rent. So anyway, what is a must-see-movie that you would recommend for us?

Well, go visit pictures. Blog later!

Love ya,
Jillian

Sounds like you had fun exploring. Just thought I would reccomend a movie for you and Ryan. How to Eat Fried Worms is really funny. Especially if you realize that you are the oldest people in the theater by like 15 years except the parents and just laugh whenever it is funny. Which is the whole movie. This is not a movie for just one person to see, it is better to laugh in groups. Ha. Well I guess that is my short movie suggestion. Have a good day.
