Sevierville - Day 3

Another relaxing, but expensive day. We went to The Tennessee Shine Company and purchased almost $200 of Shine. Most for others who requested we pick some up for them. By the time I was done tasting the samples, I had to get something to eat quick. I never knew a car could go in circles while goiong straight. Okay, maybe it was me that was going in circles.

After lunch we did some shopping to get supplies to repot some plants, visited Dollar General and Russell Stover candy store and spent another $100. At this rate, I'll have to start printing some larger bills.  :)

The temperature was in the 40's with 95% humidity, so we didn't want to stay outside too long. It seems the further west we are going to go, the warmer it will be. But it is nice to stay in one place for awhile without having to keep packing/unpacking. It is also nice that we had not one stink bug in the last 24 hours. Nancy set up a Rainbow air purifier with some peppermint oil in it. Don't know if it is the cold temperature outside or the peppermint scent inside, but we don't care as long as either of them continues to keep them away.

The answer to last night's question about the cactus: its name is Myrtiocactus geometrizans. We got it from Nancy's sister Linda, whose son Alfred got it at the Philadelphia Horticulture Show in 2014.
