Mom's Birthday

My Mom's birthday is Oct. 23. She and I took a trip to Chattanooga, TN the weekend of Halloween to celebrate. We both arrived Friday prior to lunch and at BBQ and then set off to see Ruby Falls. The waterfall in the deepest part of the cave is breathtaking. We both wondered all the beauties under the earth that most humans never see. Later we rode the Incline Railway. It's the steepest vertical drop in the US. The leaves on the ride were beautiful. Friday night we had dinner at Bald Headed Bistro in Cleveland. It's an upscale steak and wild game restaurant. Mom said it was the best piece of beef she had ever eaten. On Saturday we went to the TN aquarium and did the River and Sea adventures. Mom's favorite was the seahorse exhibit and mine was the penguins. We had a great time and I'm thankful for the time I get to spend with her.

Mom get up close and personal with a bird!
She really doesn't like feathered friends.
