Grayson County, located in the Blue Ridge Highlands of Southwest Virginia, was the location of this past weekend’s gathering of the BGs, a group of women who meet a few times a year to celebrate birthdays and friendship.

We enjoy delicious food and drink, take walks, read books, play games, and sometimes do a little crafting.

All this, plus plenty of time for talk, is typically done in a cabin or farmhouse in a rural part of Virginia.

We worried about this little one – he seemed so sluggish – but maybe he was just enjoying being able to catch some rays on a 50 degree day.

We surely enjoyed our time in the sun.

Cheers! Spring is coming!
