My Trip to Huntsville!


Oh, this Mama's heart was HAPPY indeed!

To be able to see this beautiful daughter pick me up at the Huntsville airport
was good medicine !  I enjoyed  five days with Courtney over the Labor Day
weekend and it was great fun and very relaxing!



One of the highlights was going on the Breakfast Trolley Tour!
We boarded a vintage 1920's trolley and toured the downtown Huntsville historic district.
We heard lots of good history about the Civil War, famous people and families
in Alabama, and of course, the story of Lily Flagg, the milk cow!





Before we boarded, we were treated with a massive blueberry muffin 
 (most of which we both saved) and coffee or water.



Afterwards, we went to Humprey's and ate a delicious brunch outside.
Of course we had Winslow Davis serenading us the background!





On Labor Day, we drove north across into Tennessee and visited 
the Arrington Vineyards.
Since Willcox has become well known in the wine industry, it was interesting
to see a vineyard in the south.
It was gorgeous!





After Courtney sampled several wines, we took our picnic out to the
beautiful fields.  It was so pleasant outside!
Looks like a postcard!









Thanks for the wonderful visit, Courtney!
And for such a rainy part of the country, I (we) always manage to have beautiful
weather when we visit!
