Since pussy willows have been out for a while, we knew it was only a matter of time before bears would be crawling out of their dens in search of this precious nutrition. Sure enough, last night, we heard knocking on our window. We looked outside but could not spot anything at first. The second time we heard the noise, we knew it had to be an animal and of course we spotted a two year old cub walking in our shrubberies.
But then, this morning, we wondered what he thought about the overnight snowfall.
Was it excited like a child seeing snow for the first time? lol
Snow on this 30th day of Spring is not welcome. At least it was sunny:)
But by 11 a.m., oh no! More?
Not sure whether I should be happy or sad. Did I plant too early??
As we head home, earlier than expected, we are saddened by the fact that so many people have suffered in the early months of 2020. First the devastating tornados in Nashville, then the coronavirus. We have been fortunate, travelling in our motorhome and not being as impacted. We can only hope that better days are coming soon..
Although we did not expect many attractions to be open this early in the season, the Musicland campsite has been open since the beginning of the month. Today is especially warm, 80 F. Of course, no problem ever visiting the auto and farm museum. It is housed in a huge building. Not hard to spend some time here…
Imagine having to shovel coal in the containers to keep the engine running..
Some of us are also entertained by numerous signs on the walls..
Tonight, we walk across the road to the Haygoods show. What a treat! 5 brothers and one sister, super talents!They each play multiple instruments and the harmony is incredible.
Yes, we are headed for the Big Texan RV Ranch, a mile away from the Big Texan Hotel and Steakhouse!
But before dinner, we visit the one of a kind RV Museum. What a treat!
And it all started when in 1963, Jack Sisemore borrowed 2,400$ from his grandmother..
Who has not enjoyed the movie RV! Such a great comedy and now we see the bus up close!
Jack and Trent Sisemore found this next trailer in total disrepair at a filling station 15 years ago. They bought it from an 84 year old lady who was travelling across the country. She said it was time for her to quit camping:)
Roger says this bus makes you want to go back in time…
So will one of us order the FREE 72 oz steak at the Big Texan Steakhouse? To be continued…
