FALL FESTIVALS IN BEAUTIFUL NORTH GEORGIA (ISSUE 287)

IT’S that time of year again, and my favorite season of the year.

Here in North Georgia, despite a lot of rain, we are having some magnificent weather. And because of the rain, everything looks lush and green, just before the leaves start turning all the beautiful colors.

Every year, this is a part of the country that has a number of annual Fall Festivals. Dahlonega has Gold Rush days. In the little Alpine village of Helen, Georgia, they celebrate a week-long fall festival. Further north near the North Carolina and Tennessee border huge annual fall festivals are held in several towns.

JOURNEY BACK TO GREAT DEPRESSION YEARS OF CHILDHOOD (Issue 245)

I’ve been off the internet a coupl’a days, celebrating my birthday. The highlight was a trip back to my place of childhood, in Northeast Georgia.

The first place we visited was an aunt in Commerce, Georgia. A wonderful person, still living alone in her own home, so beautifully decorated, at age ninety. Up and about, taking care of herself, enjoying her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Still preparing her own meals, and baked me a scrumptious pound cake for my birthday.
