WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING

it doesn't matter what
others are doing.
it matters what
     YOU
are doing.

 It's been a busy few days
and I've love it.

 I took a little trip to
visit my son Charlie and
his wife Ashley. I was
able to get a tour of the
area they live and if
it was closer to the beach
I might be tempted to
move ;)

 We traveled on a long dirt
road that at one time was the
main connection between
Georgia and the upper part
of South Carolina.

 You can still see the stumps
in the road after all these years.

If you look at the right of the
photo you can see what is left
of a plantation's stairs after the
home was burned on  Sherman's
March to the Sea.

 There was this little guy
sunning himself on a log.
I'm sorry it's a little blurry,
but he jumped in the water
right after I took the picture.

 I saw a fox squirrel
who posed for a photo.

 The cotton fields
were everywhere
and I want to see
them when the cotton
is ready to harvest.

I saw the cutest little home

that I think would be perfect

for me and Mike now that

most of the children are grown.

 





 I loved this old building that
was built in 1910. It's a shame
it's now being used for storage
because it would cost over a million
dollars to make it safe  and the
owner can't afford that amount.

The snakes here at home have

been horrible this year.

We found this guy on the

side of the rabbit hutch

and I am still trying to catch

the one that is visiting my ducks

and eating eggs.

The Good Year Blimp

flew over the house which

is always fun to see.

 

I picked the first ripe

blueberry of the season.

 

And we finally had a good ol' summer

storm with lightening, thunder and rain!

 

I wish you a weekend that is nourishing

to your soul.

 

Love,

Tracey
