Happier Than A Pig in Mud!


We are here in beautiful eastern Tennessee.  The dogs that we brought with us, Josh, Annie, Sheba, Charlie and of course Todd are having a great time barking at the horses in the field next to the cabin. 
 
And happily falling asleep, totally exhausted afterwards!

I guess you could say they are happier than a pig in mud...
 Or a Scottie rolling in the grass!
 The scenery is really gorgeous, this is really a beautiful part of Tennessee!

It's so nice to get away for a few days, and do a little local shopping.  Anybody need a new hubcap?
 Thank-you for stopping by my blog today!  I hope your week is ending on a good note too!

    This looks a lovely place for a holiday. Good that you could take some of the crew with you, enjoy :)
    Oh and by the look of the first photo, those roofs looks easier to fall off of, but don't tell your hubby! lol.

    Staying in Eastern Tennessee, hitting those old country mountain roads and shopping in the barns, yards and shacks is my most favorite thing in the world!! Oh, and being able to take your beloved pet is the icing on the cake. Enjoy!!

    That first shot is just so beautiful! The dogs look happy to be there.
    I never been to Tennessee but it looks very lush and green...I like that. We were just saying if the trees would bud out and we got our green on up here we woud all feel so much better. Still looks like winter even though the snow is almost gone.
