Toccoa Falls Day Trip

We took a short road trip today to see the beautiful sights of Stephens County, Toccoa Falls. What a great little hike with the family and such a gorgeous view of the Falls. The mist coming from the Falls was very cool and refreshing.  

Toccoa seems to be a very slow pace little Historical town with many unique Shops and Restaurants. Very laid back as you walk through the streets enjoying the scenery. 

Very pedestrian and vehicle friendly.  

Below are a few places of interest and many more

Camp Toccoa at Currahee

Currahee Military Museum

Historic County Courthouse

And.....of course the Historic Ritz Theatre constructed in 1939. 

Lake Toccoa and Recreational Park

Paul Anderson Park

Toccoa's unique culture brings the old with the new for all to experience.

That Beautiful White stuff!!

Today has been a bit cold and temperature was 18 when we got up this morning in GA. I'm sure others have experienced much lower temps her in the good old USA. We are happy to say that our day tomorrow should be much better as the temp will be around 40 and ALL of the snow will be GONE!!
Ok, today I decided that we should go to the grocery store for a few items needed. Oh boy...what an ordeal. I can't ice skate at all but we truck skated around for about 20 minutes. Needless to say we were more than happy to pull in the driveway. Mission accomplished...lol

A much better way to spend our time.  A hike in the woods with "B" and a great time for pictures!

OVER THE RUSH

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR


Hello to all,

Sorry it has taken me so long.......

Hoping all have had a Merry Christmas and looking forward to this New Year 2018. Well Christmas 2017 rushed right through and our 2018 New Year has already begun.

We had a quiet Christmas with the family and New Year as well. Lot's of fun and laughter. It is always a blessing to listen and watch our children and grandchildren telling their stories and opening gifts however our Christmas is always focused on the real meaning which is the birth of our Savior.

I love the Holidays, but for some it is a sad time. As I have learned with God's help to get through the Holidays after the loss of our son in 2009. There are so many families who struggle and try to understand. I have no words to express an easy method for anyone's grieving, but I can say that thankfully I had a wonderful husband and children and I pray that anyone who has lost a dear loved one that you have much peace and comfort through your days ahead and family to share your time with.

                                             I want to share a few pictures of our family

                                         Here I am helping Brittini decorate her little tree.

                                                                    Chuck and the girls

                    Me, my daughter Karen and 3 granddaughters, Kheri, Kamryn and Hannah

              Above my sweetheart and below is my most favorite Family picture (except for Robbie)

                                                                    SO BLESSED

Thanksgiving

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM OUR HOME TO YOURS. BLESSINGS AS YOU SHARE THIS BEAUTIFUL DAY WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Veterans Day

As we celebrate Memorial Day across the Nation this weekend, Many will take a moment to honor those who have given their lives in service to their county.

Originally known as Decoration Day and dates back to the 1800s remembering those who died in the Civil War.

By the 20th Century it had become a general day of commemoration for all fallen Veterans of all American Wars.










Please take a moment to remember our fallen men and women who have fought and lost their lives for our freedom and remember all the families who lost their loved ones.

I want to thank everyone in my family; my husband Charles, my dad, Ernest, uncles, Ardell and Raymond who all served in the Army. My husband in Germany and my dad and uncles in Korea.

Hope everyone is having wonderful day. The weather has turned out to be beautiful. Just the kind of
