After a nice sleep we awoke
bright and early at 6:00pm and headed out for a brisk stroll to our complimentary
breakfast buffet. The kitchen did a
wonderful job - a great selection of food! And they were able to keep it hot
just the way we like it. The walk back to our room was beautiful because there
was an inner courtyard and some of the trees still had their leaves on; river birch
had yellow leaves. You could hear the
songbirds which have been gone from our area for a while now.
Georgia’s Welcome Center stop at
noon was much needed. We put up the
table in the van and made sandwiches [a great way to save money to use on “seafood”
when we get to the coast…yum!]. My
husband gassed up the van in a small town and I picked out a $2 scratch lotto
ticket…I lost, but I gave it a shot;) I
guess you can say I contributed to the State of Georgia’s Christmas!

In the middle of Atlanta, GA, near the Mill Road Exit …rambling down the interstate, looking at the scenery and watching a movie at the same time [did I mention I have the whole back of our van to myself] I spotted a beautiful church, architecturally speaking. Too bad I can’t get inside it; I adore looking through buildings. As the road passes on there are more and more trees with leaves and they are just beginning to be touched with color. Blue, blue sky with just wisps of clouds; I just couldn’t help it I had to open the window slightly to feel the cold air on me; this reminds me of October.

Just as I was finishing up my movie we pulled into our end of the day hotel in Lake Park, GA. Good night to all and sweet dreams!

ConGeorgia On My Mind Lyrics
Artist: Ray Charles
Georgia, Georgia,
The whole day through
Just an old sweet song
Keeps
Georgia on my mind
I'm say Georgia
Georgia
A song of you
Comes
as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out
to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road
leads back to you
I said Georgia,
Ooh Georgia, no peace I find
Just
an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Other arms reach out to
me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road
leads back to you
Georgia,
Georgia,
No peace, no peace I
find
Just this old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
I said just
an old sweet song,
Keeps Georgia on my mind
