We went to Brown County Indiana to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. (Thanks to Mimi for watching the girls). We were only there for a couple of days. Nashville is a small tourist trap kind of town with lots of art shops and candy stores. We bought some homemade ice cream at Miller's and had Pizza at the Harvest Moon. I forgot how good bread sticks and cheese can be! On Saturday we went to the state park where there were several hiking trails. They were a lot longer than we thought! When we finished hiking we went horseback riding. This was Peter's first time on a horse. His horse got startled early on in the trip and ran up a hill a short ways! Yikes! After recovering the rest of the trip went well. The horses liked to trot to catch up, which is quite bouncy.
Saturday evening we went back into Nashville for dinner at the "Holy Cow" Restaurant. (It tastes so good it should be a sin... or so they claim) We had a cheesecake shortchange for dessert which was awesome! Then we went to a musical theatre performance set up like an old radio show performing Hollywood Musical classics. What fun!
The weather was perfect all weekend for being outdoors. Never too warm or too humid, particularly in the park. Though we were walking around a bit, we were mostly in the shade, so it all balanced out. It didn't rain at all (unlike today!).

Sammy on Horseback






Sammy LOVED Horseback camp. She even learned to trot a little. She was dissapointed that someone had to lead the horse, but the camp was only a week long!
