Tennessee Fresh!

We wanted to get out one day so mom, dad, and I went for a drive to explore a little more of our state. Here it looks like you are driving out towards the middle of no where, like going up in the woods and you won't be able to find your way out. But we were driving. So on our drive we passed by this little sign that said fresh fruit and mom was like, "I want to stop there!!" Dad pulled off and turned down this little street that this guy was driving a tractor on and he was going so slow but he wouldn't pull off so people could pass. So we saw the sign and turned left and felt like we stepped into back wood hicks with pitch forks. We got out of the truck we so did not fit in. I had on a dress with wedges and a Starbucks in one hand and my camera in the other. They looked at us like we were crazy. I started taking pictures of all the fruit and a girl that was just a few years younger than me asked me with her very deep southern accent, "Are you an artist?" She was also calling her mom because she had a question and she said, "Mama, Mama?" It was so funny.

This is the tractor we got stuck behind. That's a lot of tomatoes!!

That's a whole lot of peaches.

They had so many fans blowing that my hair was getting stuck in my lip gloss.
