Camping

For my birthday, Brandon and I went camping on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We camped at Julian Price Park and walked the 2.6 mile trail around it after first attempting the trail with all the rocks where you see Brandon standing. That trail started at the Lynn Cove Viaduct, but it was very narrow and steep and I am clumsy and didn't want to fall and land down the ravine hitting my head on a rock.

Then the next morning we stopped at the Moses Cone Manor/ Craft store. They have a beautiful view of lake. I just love the colors this time of year. All the warm colored leaves and bright blue skies.

Class

Yestarday I asked my students a trick question, how do you make white? black? red? yellow? blue? My seventh graders who took band last year instead of art spent 10 minutes guessing every kind of color combinations to try to make those colors, but my sixth graders knew right away and said Mrs. Davis you can't make those colors. I'm so proud of my sixth graders, at least I know some of my students have been paying attention all these years. Anyway, they are making some good art this year, I think I will post some photos later.

Books

I added a bunch of my favorite books. I love anything by Dee Henderson & Terri Blackstock. Great Christian fiction, mostly murder mysteries or some kind of suspense.

Welcome

Welcome to our blog. This is my first blog. Here are some pictures of my pets, minus one who doesn't like to get photographed much. In order: Nehamiah, William, Jadziah, Nalla. Misssing is Senorah. Last is Jason, Brandon's cousin we went hiking with. This is the view from Poilt Mountain, amazing isn't it. We hook the hard way to get there, on a skinny trail from the bottom instead of driving up to the top. Much more fun that way.
