There was another visit to the river house last weekend, and this was the view on Friday afternoon when I drove in - the Friday Market in the town square. I couldn't wait to get my stuff in the house so I could come back here and peacefully mingle.
My only real task was choosing a new hanging plant to take back home, and I found it at an enchanted plant nursery, which was completely off the beaten path.
The delightful lady who helped me pick this out said it is a dipladenia, here in it's temporary parking place by the river, until I took my leave on Monday. In a true Good Things Happened moment, she tucked it away in the back seat of my car, and said to it, "Now you behave on your trip home." I thought she was talking to me at first. :)
The river was beautiful on Sunday morning, so I walked around the banks of the Hiwassee River a bit. I flushed out a phantom egret that we see now and then. We both startled each other and then it flapped away south.
My internet is down at home (since last week), so I am not able to visit blogs as much as usual. Waiting for a technician to visit and things will be back to normal soon, I hope.

Hi Lynn - looks wonderful and I'm so pleased you can go down fairly often to enjoy life in the country or by the Hiwassee ... the Dipladenia looks amazing ... love it - and now enjoy it at home ... especially as you have more time without the internet!! Cheers and hope it's fixed soon ... enjoy the weekend -Hilary
Hello, I like your pretty hanging basket. Pretty flowers. The views of the river are lovely. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
Isn't horrible when the internet is down? I hope they sort it out quickly for you.
So did you behave in the car on the way home?
I think it's safe to say that you love green growing things as much as I do. :-)
I hope the plant did behave on its way home!
Loved your photo's here.
All the best Jan
Looks like a wonderful day and a new plant too. Internet woes can affect us all at one time or another. Technology is wonderful...when it works!
The plant looks right at home with you. Had a wonderful walk-about with my kids this past weekend. We went to the local Farmers Market together.
Pretty scenery here! She must have been a good plant mommy! Yep sometimes it gets tough keeping up with our internet favorites, especially in busy summertime! For me also-
