  • Picnic with Mom on Red Oak Mountain:
    I had planned a birthday party for my mom but she ended up having to be in the hospital that weekend. With mom’s health declining it was hard to plan another date to invite people to a party not knowing how she would feel that day. I decided to get together a picnic and take her to what I call Rad Oak Mountain. I’m not sure if it is really even called Red Oak Mountain but because they are a one room church called Red Oak Baptist Church there I have just always called it Red Oak Mountain. Come along with just me mom and her dog Judy for a beautiful afternoon on Red Oak Mountain.

    What a nice day for a picnic in the mountains with your mother...she's a sweet soul and you're a wonderful son. The church is beautiful and very well kept. Keep the videos coming...there are plenty of us who long for a more peaceful and family oriented time in our country. Blessings to you and your family.

    I see how life runs so quickly. I also see a great spirit rising up from the inside to keep moving along; the will to keep going. Beautiful. Sometimes it is difficult but see the strength within, change your perspective on how you view what is going on in life. See the strength coming from within. Beautiful soul.

    That was so sweet you taking your Mom, up there. Years ago that was a school and was used as a church also. My Mom, was a school teacher there for a while. Back in the day many years ago there were many large white pine trees up there. Timber companies cut them long ago. Most people don't know it now but there was a large community of people that lived in that area.❤❤❤👍
