There is a trend in some corners of social media to recall 2016. Here are some pictures I found from that time.
This was a special spot in town for lunch or shopping. I loved the atmosphere. Unfortunately, it is no longer open.
We visited friends who live in The Waters near Montgomery, Alabama. Quite a lovely setting!
Mary Mahoney’s is located in Biloxi, Mississippi, and we were there to visit with my sister and her family. They no longer live in that area, having moved to town in 2020.
There was a chance to make a quick trip to New Orleans. The beignets are amazing!
A trip to Malaprops Bookstore in Asheville, NC came in June. This van gives you an idea of why we were there.
It was the opportunity to meet Susan Branch! She was signing books!
She also signed this scarf which I made from her own design on fabric I was able to order from Spoonflower.
Apparently we were doing a bit of traveling during the year. The Terrace at Lake Junaluska arranged these towels in this special shape.
Of course, there was the trip to Emory and Henry for Homecoming and a chance to see the marching band perform.
It appears that 2016 was a great year for personal memories. It was good to recall these special times.
Currently, we’ve been on a weather watch here, and the forecast seems to keep changing. We in this location rarely have severe winter weather, so we usually need to take some time for extra preparation. Are you expecting a storm this weekend? Are you prepared?
Be safe! Stay warm and cozy!
My daughters tried those beignets in New Orleans, and they said they are amazing! Those towels are cool in the shape of a Swan. Susan Branch is very creative and her calendars are delightful. Thanks for sharing a bit of your travels with us, Nellie.
