Dad and Fran in fron of President (General) Andrew Jackson's home. His nickname was old hickory as he would bend but not break. Apparently hickory would is very bendable. General Jackson kicked the British fannys at the Battle of New Orleans when they attempted to deprive us of access to Mardi Gras.

Wow, I knew your parents were going, but not about your sisters. That's great that you all get to be together. We did one of those dinner cruises in Hawaii where you get to dance and had a blast. Enjoy your trip!
I sure am glad you guys are having fun. Things are going very well here. NatJ is in the backyard digging a hole with Mackenzie. They are allegely digging a hole to the Devil. I may well need to use that medical release form if they are successful. though, between NatJ and Kenzie, I suspect the Devil may need one too.
Doing the funky chicken? Wow- it sure looks like your dad knows how to have fun.
Cool.
Ahhhh . . . .home. My old home. I lived in Old Hickory, TN, from birth to almost 9 and have been to Jackson's home many times. Isn't it beautiful? Looks like y'all are having a blast.
