We had a brief stay in Knoxville. Just enough to get a good night’s sleep and a hot breakfast in preparation for the end of the first leg of our journey.

Before we left though, we took in just a few sites in beautiful, historic Knoxville. At our first stop,  we find this man among all sorts of vegetation and their “roots.”

We stretched our legs a bit before we got in the car. Janea and I do not know what came over Ben and Judah, who decided to celebrate with a belly-bump.

Almost literally around the corner and down the street, we found the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. This would have been a good time to take an impromptu tour but it is closed on Sunday.

Now Janea and I can’t let the boys have all the fun. Check out our skills.
