One of my favorite things to do in the Summer is to take a day trip to Memphis, Tennessee for estate sales (to be honest, it’s probably one of my favorite things any time of the year, but photos from the bridge do look prettier in the summer time). My bargain hunting heart starts pounding when we cross the bridge from Arkansas into Tennessee!
I also like to play with Photoscape any time of the year.
I am linking to Summer Sundays at The Tablescaper and Mosaic Monday at Little Red House.
Tomorrow evening, I will be using the Random Generator to draw a winner of the “Ice Cream for 2 Giveaway”. A comment on this post (or any post this week) will give you an entry.

Laurie,
I feel that way about Chattanooga! We go there and I love the bridge the water front, the aquarium, the parks. Just one of my favorite places ever!
I know I entered your drawing but just in case a mention here to make sure :)

I'm eager to see the goods. Hope you'll post then soon. Glad you had a good time.
Happy Father's Day to the cowboy! ~ Sarah
We have been through Memphis, but really have never visited it. Good estate sales, hmmmm.
Memphis sounds great, I've never been!

Hi Laurie,
What beautiful pics!
I so love the Mississippi! We aren't far from it, (about 40 miles) and the river in our town flows into it. It's amazing to think how long this river really is!
Can't Wait to see your treasures and I hope I win your give-away!
Hugs, Cindy
We will be in Memphis on July 3 to see Larry's mother and sister and then on to Little Rock. My family is getting together for the 4th. Love you Photoscaping.
So if I get to Memphis to visit my nephew and his wife who is a doc at St Jude's are you close by?
Remember, Christine absolutely does not need any more things!
Laurie, If I lived closer I would go with you! This sounds like so much fun.
And please enter me in your wonderul giveaway! This sounds so fantastic!!!!! I'm hoping to be a winner!

Thanks Laura, I will have to pay more attention when posting.
Hope to see you sometime at Mia Monday!
Love the mosaics, Laurie.
It's about time for us to make a trip across the Mississippi. We want to take the ferry and with the Mississippi in flood quite a bit this spring, we couldn't get to the launch. Maybe when we get back from the lake next week. We could go across via the bridge up north...but we love riding the ferry.:-)
Love the mosaics, Laurie.

I would love to visit Memphis one day. It looks quite amazing and so full of history.
I love your mosaics too! I really must investigate photoscape as I know that so many bloggers use it for their mosaics.
Best wishes,
Natasha.
That takes me back to the 4th of July, 1976. My brother worked in one of the taller buildings along the river and he had an office with a window. He invited us to join him to watch the special bi-centennial fireworks display, which brought it eye-level to where we were. Fantastic -- I'll never forget that wonderful experience! Annie
Great pictures of the Mississippi River. It doesn't look muddy at all. I have seen parts of it, but from miles up in the air.
You have a great post !!!
