My Mom & Step-Dad, Ken, are moving to Abingdon, VA on Thursday. The moving company will be here this week to pack them up ... and there's lots to do before they go.
And lots to do once they get there. SO.
I'm flying out with Mom on Thursday morning and staying until the following Wednesday to help her house hunt, discover the area, find the best: neighborhood, grocery store, hair salon, yoga, place for breakfast, best place for "nesting stuff," etc. etc.
So far I have found a few things to note:
1. We fly into Knoxville, and it's the closest major city. It is, however, not pronounced Knoxville. It's NOX-VULL.
2. They do BBQ there.
3. In the Spring, pink Dogwoods bloom all over the region, making for a sea of pink goodness that I cannot wait to photograph. I wonder when Spring happens there?
4. Traditional homes with lots of built in detail will make house hunting fun.
(We'll leave the abandonment issues for another day.)
