We left Lincolnton Georgia Saturday evening and drove up to Hendersonville, NC, where we spent the rather short night. I didn’t think much on that drive, but I did gather my thoughts and jot down a few of them as Papa drove us back to Michigan Sunday. I actually did quite a bit of driving … Read more
That’s enough for today.
I must say that the water levels are really down. Papa thinks the river might be 6 or 7 feet below the first time we were here, several years ago. It’s dusty in Georgia. We ran across some cows that got out last night. A sheriff was sitting by the side of the road with … Read more

GD2 needed to go home Wednesday, she woke up missing her family. She was very quiet all morning, and very happy when she and I got into the car to head for Kalamazoo. Having her here for a few days reminded me of the “good old days”, when I had three small children in the … Read more
Papa’s photos from Pickin’ on Cystic Fibrosis are posted here.
