Family Reunion 2009
It means going through your recipe file to find that dish that will both taste good and travel well. My family hits the highway and travels to the middle Tennessee town of Camden. We rent a lodge at the local state park, enjoy the beautiful countryside, good company, and lots of food.
We have been meeting at this lodge for about 14 years. Lots has happened over the years. We have watched the children grow up and a couple of times gathered together to mourn the passing of a loved one. Right after 9-11 we gathered at the lodge and were able to escape the horrors of terrorism for a weekend. We were so far in the hills we had no TV or cell phone reception. For a weekend we were able to sleep without nightmares.
Memorable or average, a reunion is a nice way to spend a weekend.

I have a big family and amazingly, everyone gets along great and we all treasure coming together. I love those times.. the stories, laughter and yes the food!!
I would love visit Tennessee one day. Blessings to you Toni :-)
Thanks. I love getting away with my family for that one weekend. We saw lots of deer and wild turkeys this year, too.
