Fun Weekend!

We went for a drive in the country this weekend . . . always fun!  We ate Mexican Food, picked up some rocks, had a cold drink at the Minkler Cash Store, and visited the Centerville cemetery where Richard's grandparent's are buried.
I like this cemetery.  It is small and out in the country - very peaceful, quiet, and kept up so nice. 
We spotted this sign on our way to the cemetery.   Whenever we drive out here - I always think that this may be where I would like to be buried . . . I couldn't help but think that once you are in this cemetery . . . that you are "somewhere over the rainbow." 
Stopped in Minkler . . .
 . . . and at the Minkler Cash Store.  Love this old store . . . Some of the stuff on these shelves probably hasn't been moved in years.  It is fun to just to browse around and take everything in.  Richard was going to get a hat - and there were some great socks I wanted . . . but we were not prepared for the cash only.  But hey - we have a reason to go back.
We trespassed . . .
 . . . or rather Richard did.  I wanted some rocks for by my garden.  We were going to venture down further and walk across a little bridge - very large, barking dogs kept us from doing that. 
Fun Day!
We also spent some time outside by the pool - working in the yard.  One of our young doves made its way out of the nest.  This is what hangs right below his nest . . . and this is all the further he got. 
Here's to a great weekend . . . and another one only five days away!
