Not much happened on Friday. Another chill day at BI, but a day full of filing. Haha not going to lie, it wasn’t my favorite part. The best part of the day was a funny little conversation…
“Why do we have scissor sharpeners?” {Amber}
“So we can sharpen scissors!” {Martin}
(Cricket, Cricket, Cricket…aka dead silence)
Bahahaha I laughed and laughed and laughed. Ok I guess you had to be there but I really did think it was way funny.
Yesterday I went to the Belle Meade Plantation. What a beautiful home. I was expecting something a little more “Gone with the Wind” but it really was beautiful. I couldn’t take any pictures inside but I did take some of the surrounding property. It was funny, but after the tour there was free wine tasting. Obviously I didn’t participate and I got some of the weirdest looks because of it. The people on my tour couldn’t believe that I would pass up free alcohol.
One thing that the Belle Meade Plantation and that families who built it (the Harding's and Jackson's) are known for is their horse breading. Almost ALL of the Kentucky Derby "greats" can trace their "lineage" back to the Belle Meade Mansion. If you are ever in the Nashville Area, this is a must see.

The rest of the weekend has been really chill and I think tomorrow will be too, but I think that I will be going to a BBQ so I look forward to that. I hope everyone has had a great weekend so far and I’ll see ya’ll soon.
