{ Friday Foto Friends #104 }

ONE-HUNDRED FOUR Friday's, Y'all!

TWO YEARS!

Yes....

today is the 2-year anniversary of our Friday Foto Friends link-up!

But, did any of you know that it's actually been longer than that?  I started posting fotos in August of 2013, over FOUR years ago! At that time, I simply called it Friday Foto and it wasn't a link-up. I wanted to share the very first one I posted way back then but somehow (operator error, I'm sure) many of my pictures from several years ago have disappeared and none of the Friday Fotos from 2013 are visible.

😢

So be prepared to scroll through a bunch of fotos that I think are some of the better ones from the last four years.   

Spring of 2014.....

Whew!

Did you make it through all those?

 Thanks to everybody who has been faithful to link up and share fotos of things that have meaning to you or what's going on in your part of the world! I've met some ladies from all over the world through our blogs and I truly appreciate those who take the time to link up each Friday!

Wonder where we'll be in four more years?

HOPE everybody has a great weekend!

Proceed with caution:

picture overload.....

;-)

Pappy and I took a little day trip to Gatlinburg recently and drove through the Roaring Fork Nature Trail.  If you're ever in the area, it's well worth the drive off the beaten path and away from the crowds of downtown Gatlinburg (well, except for hikers). 

 Here are some pics we snapped along the way.

I love how the sun is coming in through the trees in this one and the moss growing on the rock.

These stacked stones remind me of how that was done in Biblical times to serve as a memorial, or a reminder.  I couldn't help but wonder who had stacked them and if they knew what it meant in scripture......

and, if so, what they were stacking them as a reminder of.

I'd REALLY like to have a fence like this down our property lines.

 Just happened to get a picture of this VERY handsome man!

Do any of you know what the growth is on this tree?

Isn't this metal fence just awesome?

I know it looks like wood, though!

Look at all the neat little things made out of metal attached.

(click on the pic to enlarge for a better view)

This was the bathroom floor and I thought it was so neat.  
I think they must have maybe painted the ferns on one side and lay them on the concrete floor.

One question:

where are HIS wrinkles?

Thanks for taking a little trip through the mountains with us today.

HOPE y'all have a great weekend.

We're keeping our grand-kiddos this afternoon, tonight and tomorrow.....

yes.....

all FOUR of them.....

at the same time!

Maybe whisper a little prayer for us.....LOL!!!

I'll try my best to visit you  before the weekend is over)
