We reluctantly left Savannah since we had found it to be a charming town full of lovely old houses, many great restaurants, and lots of good shopping. We took I-16 to Macon, GA, I-75 to Griffin, and then went cross country on G16 until we got to the Sharpsburg and Peach Tree City area. Chris and Traci live in the country, but in this area. Maxine (our global positioning device) talked us directly to their door, and shortly Traci and the kids (Brittani and Tyler) arrived home from school. Chris came in a bit later from North Carolina where he had been meeting with his boss. Traci, a surgical nurse, is on call this weekend, so we went out for dinner back in Griffin and then all returned for bath and bed. We had not visited this area for several years and noticed how much construction had occurred and was continuing, and also how very dry it is. They have been experiencing a severe drought here, with most of the lawns brown and many trees damaged as well.
What a joy to get and give hugs from grands and kids. Everyone talked all at once, and we enjoyed art work of Tyler, played checkers, and put a dinasour 3D puzzle together with him while listening to Brit play her guitar and sing. This is one busy family.
