Sunday Morning Time






Today is a day I have never understood. When I worked it made it seem more worth while, then when I was off (worked a company that ran 24.7) It seemed it was a long day and really did not want to do or go anywhere.

With Zeni it was a lot of fun. We learned a lot about history and relatives who have passed away and just saw lots of things I would not have seen for myself. We have visited a lot of places in Tennessee, Alabama and North Georgia.

The trip to Columbus a few months ago was one I would never have thought I would enjoy so much. The beauty of the town and canyon was breath taking. The many Indian Festivals and of course going looking for graves for people, who have moved from the state, and want to find the graves of their relatives.

The old Cooper Plantation in Cartersville , when the water was down so far we could walk out and see what Sherman had left of it. Including the ravages of the Allatoona Dam Water .

In Tennessee we saw the graves of the group of men who were in the Great Locomotive Chase from Big Shanty also know as Kennesaw. It was amazing to visit Tunnel Hill Ga and see where they were stopped and that day I saw a reinactment of a battle from the War Between the States. Them Yankees and Rebels were fighting like it was still the 1860's.

One trip we took to Barnsley Gardens in Kingston Ga. Haunted Mansion that was Margaret Mitchell's inspired her Scarlett and Rhett or so the story goes. They had a lot of trouble at the place until one of the owners had an Indian remove the curse and now it is a thriving tourist attraction.

Just a few of the places we have seen. She loves Helen Ga and that area. We even visited Cleveland Ga where the famous Cabbage Patch babies are born. Amazing the things that inspire her to go nearly ever week end.

Least we forget the Oakland Cementary in Atlanta, Bobby Jones the golfer is buried there and golf balls seem to be tossed all over when the Masters players visit and leave him a couple.

Enough I have got to get ready for my Special Sunday Trip. Peace be with all of you and love to each of you.
