A day with Mom and Donna

My mom, sister Donna and I went to visit Amy (Donna's daughter) a few weeks back who is in college at JMU.   Along the way we had lunch at the Hickory Notch grill,  yum mm.   We had to  make  a stop at the  Horton winery,  Mom and Donna tasted some wine and checked out the beautiful roses blooming in the front entrance.

I like the way that a tree limb is used to hold the curtain valance

Mom will be 89 - November the 23 and she still made it up 3 flights of steps to Amy's apt.
Pretty darn good I should say.

That was a fun day. Your pictures turned out really good. What about the picture of you and Mom together? We need to visit more vineyards. There are a lot heading towards the mountains.
