An antique card was part of a stack of cards on the counter in the back of an old country store. The greeting card showed a colorful suitcase under the title “Double your pleasure, double your fun.” Upon opening the card (original cost 25 cents ¬it really is old), a little lady had snuggly packed herself inside the suitcase exclaiming “take me along.”  Traveling with someone else adds to the fun of travel regardless of our age.

Love of the oak tree is acquired, like a taste for bitter coffee or hiking, work or philosophy.  It may hold no sweetness or excitement for us as children, but has an enduring appeal that grows with time.

Don’t leave the kids at grandma’s! Bring them to FloydFest

We’re packed, car’s loaded…..
