Did you get a good look at that setup?

Spring Creek CG site 22A

Clarksville, Tn

You can certainly spot some interesting things as you travel.  Take this set up.

It wasn't so much the trailer towing a trailer that got our attention, it was the fact that he was using a hitch that wasn't welded to the truck frame, just mounted to a light piece of metal AND he was towing all that weight with a half ton/1500 truck.  He is either a gambler or ignorant.  Definitely an accident waiting to happen.

Momma and Dad ran off to the Customs House Museum today in downtown Clarksville.  The old post office and customs house has a unique style.



The gal at the welcome desk stated that this museum is the second largest museum in Tennessee.  Momma decided it may be the largest in square footage for the building, but not in quantity of exhibits.  As it turned out, it happened to be one of the days that a volunteer was operating the model trains.  








One area was devoted to fire equipment from the past.


A couple of finely crafted items took up one section.

A pair of Acme Cowboy boots that depicted all the symbols of Tennessee were on display.
 Some history plaques shared information dating back to earlier times.


The museum had a feel of 'donate it and we will display it'.  But there really weren't all that many donations so they filled the other rooms with paintings and drawings by two artists as well as ceramic pieces by another artist.  

Momma's recommendation....don't put this museum anywhere near the top of your bucket list.

Dad was impressed with the $5.33 diesel price at the Walmart gas station while Momma was impressed with the large, well stocked, recently built Neighborhood Walmart store.  It was super clean and the produce was plentiful and fresh.  They even had a bakery.

So we have been living with increased prices on our fuel, food (yes, even my dog food has increased in price) and now, Momma just received an email stating that her cell phone plan's bill would have an additional charge of $12 added to her next statement.  I guess the phone companies want to get on the 'let's raise the price' band wagon.  

Dad hinted that maybe I should be looking for a job.  I told him we should go on the road as a traveling act.  I'll make some dynamic catches as he makes some impressive tosses of my ball or frisbee.  Momma can sell the tickets. They say you should love your work...and I certainly love ball and frisbee fetch.   Maybe we will be on tour in your area?

I'm Chloe
