February 27 - March 5
Georgia has taken me by surprise! Except for a brief visit in 2011 to friends in St. Marys and a walk around Savannah, Georgia has always been just Atlanta, home of brother Chuck. But we can now add Georgia State Parks to the must-visit list! We camped our first night out of Florida at Reed Bingham SP in southern Georgia.

The next day we met Jane, a good friend from high school for lunch in Macon. Sadly we were so busy catching up that I forgot to get a picture!

The next two days we camped with cousin Nora and James and son Burton and Whitley at Indian Springs SP closer to Atlanta. We had quite a campsite with our little Casita and their barely larger R-Pod. Friday night the six of us went to a Beatles tribute concert by an excellent band called The Return. It was almost as if we were listening to the real thing!

Sunday afternoon we drove to Suwanee, in the northern part of Atlanta, to stay a few days with brother Chuck and Evelyn. Their beautiful house has been a welcoming and quiet haven for us many times. Dave and I visited the Jimmy Carter Museum; we would highly recommend that to you.
Chuck and Dave had fun bottling root beer. We swam at Chuck's community pool. We had wonderful Chinese food. And we celebrated Chuck's birthday at the Olive Garden. Cousin Erica and Kenny came over after dinner for a visit and ping-pong game. Tomorrow we leave Georgia, but we take with us many wonderful memories!
