We had a great time - got home today and promptly took a NAP! LOL!

We got there Wednesday about 5:00 after stopping in a cute little town to do some shopping on the way. Our cabin was TINY, but just fine for us.

We found a local restaurant and had catfish for supper. MMMMMM! Then we drove around to look at Christmas lights. We went back to the cabin to watch movies. We didn't have any TV stations, only a DVD player, but we had brought plenty of movies.

Pat (picture posted below) had never seen The Full Monty. So, we watched that first and laughed till we cried. Next we watched, Shall We Dance, with Jennifer Lopez and Richard Gere.

It was pretty cold outside (and windy) so we made our smores over the gas burner on the stove - they tasted GREAT!

On Thursday, we went to a little town about 5 miles away that has a little "artist loop" where local artisans had crafts and wares. We shopped at all the stores (only about 10), then we headed back to the town were we were staying and shopped the little local stores and antique shops. We had a lot of fun - didn't buy too much, just a few odds and ends.

Then we ate at the local steakhouse, MMMMM GOOD! We went back to the cabin and watched Chocolat and White Christmas.

Today we headed home and stopped at a "flea/antique market and shopped some more. We had a great time, but were ready to be home for the weekend!

I've posted some pictures below.
