A drive through the country!

If you read the last post,I promised to explain why I was driving and taking pictures all day yesterday.
I have am in a blogging rut.
I love blogging and I am quite attached to this little corner of the creativity,but I am a terrible slacker! I say I will post,and I don't. So! I am trying to get back on the ball. Yesterday, I loaded up my camera,tripod,and music, and I hit the road. I drove all over the country side looking for things to photograph! It was fun,scary, and interesting. I had my mace(pepper spray) with me,but I didn't really want to have to use it. Not that I live in a rough area,but you can never be too careful right? 





 I jumped back into my car after taking these pictures and somehow I set my panic alarm off. I glance in my side view mirror and what do I see? A SHERIFF.  He was headed up to the elementary school to do his rounds, when he spotted this girl, stealing a car sitting in a car with the alarm blasting. He stopped and asked if I was ok. I assured him that I had just set my alarm off by accident(all the while it is still blasting away.) He drove away while I tried to figure out how to turn the darn thing off!





 I want this house and it is for sale! It has the beautiful barn(below) sitting right across from it!








I hope you all have a great Thursday!

Floyd Virginia Day Trip

Hello!
My family photo session that I mentioned for today got pushed back a couple weeks, so my family took a trip up to Floyd Virginia for the day! We got a little turned around, so we stopped and had our picnic at Fairy Stone State Park. It really is a beautiful place! I wanted to hang around and take more pictures,but we had a 45 minute drive ahead of us and it was already one o'clock. 
 I did get a few pics at our picnic spot:)

 My new ball cap:D I know the picture is a little over exposed,but my shutter was acting up:(

 I took some pictures in a few of the tourist shops in Floyd. My family kept having to stop and wait for Emily to take a picture every five minutes. They were pretty good sports though.;)





 I loved this hat!!!!!! So much!





 BOOTS!






 This was in contrast to that picture of my dad with Thelma Lou on my Mount Airy post;)
OOOooooooOOOOOooooooo Chocolate!


The cutest little balconies!!!


So that was our day in Floyd! Be sure to enter my giveaway! It ends on the 21st!
Have a good night!
