We traveled through the mountains, and found a few more barn quilts.
And an occasional great sign. The roads were winding, and the creeks swollen. Spring was on it's way. We arrived at our friends house in the Atlanta area about 5:00. It was so good to see them. The last timeI had had the chance to visit with them was in February of 2008. Friday Sandy and I started out early for the Atlanta Shop Hop.
We stayed in Knoxville, Tennessee on our first night. After a night of heavy rain, we started on the next leg of our journey. Got to stop at a couple cute quilt shops.

Paddy's Quilting Place in Maryville was a wonderful shop. Everyone was so friendly. They even had a special room for my husband to sit in and watch tv or read a newspaper while I shopped. There was a "Barn Quilt" on the front of the shop.
On March 21, on the popular show "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" there was a segment about a restaurant in Indianapolis, Indiana called Jersey's Cafe. It is a restaurant that makes food that is popular in New Jersey. I remember "Taylor Porkroll".
We were on our way to Atlanta, Georgia for a wedding. After seeing the show, we decided to give it a try. I had the porkroll sandwich, and I was not disappointed. It was everything I remembered and then some. This place was amazing!!

Looks like you are having a grand time...that duck sign is so funny. Love your mug rugs.
We watched the segment on Diner's, etc. just last evening that you mentioned. Must be wonderful food.
I like to see the quilt barns.
Wow Mary you certainly have been very busy travelling etc. I think you need time now to sit and sew and like me get some of those UFO's finished. I loved looking at all the beautiful quilts in your post. Thanks for sharing.
