My husband and I rode to Killen Park for the Killen Log 877 Classic Car Show, which featured a mix of bikes, jeeps, classic cars, and new cars.

We parked alongside the park. Many cars and people were present, including those attending the farmers' market, soccer games, Vendors, and Car and Tractor Shows.
It has been several months since I last visited the park. Many new buildings are being constructed, and disc golf courses are now installed.
There was also a tractor show featuring several old and new John Deere tractors, as well as those from other manufacturers.

We strolled through the farmers' market, stopping to buy stone-ground cornmeal and fresh strawberries.

We stopped at home so Hubby could grill steaks, and I fixed creamed potatoes and corn on the cob for lunch.
After lunch, we rode to Lexington Park to watch our great-grandson, Atlas, play Tee-ball.
After the tee-ball game, we rode to TVAM, where a display and crafts were set up for bird lovers. We talked through the Tennessee Valley Art Museum (which was free today).
On display was the art of the print: 500 years of printmaking.
What the Night Tells the Day by Douglas Baulos.
We rode back home, where I took a short nap. My daughter called while I was preparing dinner at my sister's house.
I ended the day by going to my sister's to play cards (spades and various UNO games). I liked the reverse UNO game.
Sisters Vicki, Becky, and Teresia, along with great-niece Emmalee and her friend, played these games.
Teresia had cooked a lovely meal of Black-eyed peas, cornbread, a broccoli casserole with chicken, brats with kraut, sweet potatoes, and a batch of chocolate chip cookies.
My sister loaded me down with leftovers for Hubby.
She also gave me a bouquet of peonies from her garden.
