I stopped at Bozo's BBQ ( only a few miles from
the birthplace of Issac Hayes) but they are 
closed on Sundays :-( . First time I'd ever tried
to stop there on a Sunday....bummer. 
As for my nephew and his wife and the 3 year old,
I am very happy that they live very close to 
Mom and they totally dote on her, and are
there all the time to help her and do whatever
needs to be done.

It's part of my family history and I've 
been told about it for years. Have a standing
invitation to stay at one cousin's cabin on the 
grounds but the thought of no AC and the summer
heat and humidity of Tennessee in August is 
more than I think I could bear. 
chat with you soon
