 Down the street from Rachel's apartment

The road less traveled

Nothing says "Tennessee Sunset" like the silhouette of a herd of cattle

The watering hole

Love,

Tennessee Snow

It's snowing!!!

 

This was just the beginning... 

The flakes began to fall AND STICK!!!

The view out of my window!  And yes, my Christmas lights are still up :)

Just a little bit of frosting

I had a blast in the snow!  About 40 of us came out of our apartment, took a break from being medical students and played like we were kids again.  It was great!

My friend Sam and I were trying to catch snow!!

When it finally stopped snowing

The next morning!  So beautiful :)

First snow run in my new shoes!!

My running crew...we are so hardcore

Love,

Chels

Paducah, Kentucky

Road trip to Paducah

On the way to western Kentucky to spend the weekend with Rachel and her family

I entertain myself well :)

Murals on the flood wall in downtown Paducah.  Look I'm a Boy Scout!!!

Train crossing

Spending the day at the farm for Grand Daddy's birthday...perfect time for some shooting

  The colors of fall at Uncle Bruce's farm

hiking

A breath of fresh air

Megan and Rachel at our pre-hike picnic lunch

On the walking trail before the real hiking started...

Rachel was strutting her stuff

The bugs and things here are HUGE!!

beautiful

Goldenrod

 

the trails we traveled

She's a ham...I don't know why we're friends:)

And you can see why I am friends with Megan as well...

we are all cut from the same strange cloth

So tranquil and peaceful...except for the HUGE wild turkey that jumped out of a drainage pipe and almost put me into cardiac arrest!!!

So pretty...I thought for sure i would see a hobbit or an elf or some other whimsical creature
