On the Road- Knoxville TN

Knoxville TN

September 17, 2009

We left St. Louis fairly early so that we could get to Knoxville in plenty of time to get ready for the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashanah. We drove straight through as quickly as possible in order to get their by 9p.m. and we were able to see our grandchilren before they went to bed. Thurs. night was my mother's Yorzheit and I wanted to be able to make some Rosh Hashanah remembrance foods for the dinner on Friday night. The dinner Friday night was a magnificent holiday feast and our grandchildren-not quite four years old were able to say the blessings before the meal.

On Saturday morning we all went to the Children's service for the New Year and we spent the rest of the day playing at home. The synagogue that we went to was the synagogue that we belonged to the year that we lived in Knoxville. It was great to see old friends and acquaintances.
