I'm back in Augusta. The drive home was beautiful after having inches and inches of rain fall on the state of Georgia just two days ago. The drive from Augusta to Columbus and the return drive is literally from one state line to the other. From the South Carolina/Georgia side to the Alabama/Georgia side. From the Savannah River to the Chattahoochee River. It's a wonderful drive, the route that I take. I avoid interstate roads. I drive the counytry side. The beautifiul country side of Georgia. I left Georgia years back to move to Virginia. Why I made the move has escaped me now but in looking back on the move, it's just what I was supposed to do. Being gone from Georgia, I always said that if I ever got back that I'd never leave it. Oh, I've made trips outside the state but I always come back. The cotton fields were so full of cotton bolls that it looked like snow. I'm guessing that it hasn't been harvested yet because of all the rain we've had lately.My husband said the peach trees in the fields looked like a grove of large bonsai trees.
It's home. I love it. If you have never been here, sometime in your life you must find a reason to visit.
By the Grace of God, I am what I am. (1 Corinthians 15:10)

Welcome to Weezers Haven. Why 'Weezer'? It's what my grandbabies call me and that in itself is another story (ever see 'Steel Magnolias'?)
I am the mother of three daughters and the grandmother to four granddaughters. (Even the dog is a girl.) I am a retired pediatric nurse, a Christian of 'getting stronger' faith, and a reliable prayer warrior. I love to eat bacon cheeseburgers and drink too many diet cokes. Diet A&W is my biggest weakness.
I am not a person of great or many words. Here, you won't find long compositions. I am a visual person and often use my own photos to make a point or illustrate an idea.
I am devoted to my blogger friends. If you visit, please leave a greeting. I love to know who's stopped by.
How wonderful that the world our daughters will inherit allows them to become teachers, doctors, atists, or corporate CEOs; to raise children, and lead armies! (author unknown)

What I'm Reading
"Life as We Would Want It...Life as We Are Given It." Ken Gire
When a daughter begins to ask about the past, she is beginning to spread her wings.
A woman needs to understand where she comes from so that she may better choose where she wants to go.
~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~ <>< ~~~~~ ~~~~~
Parents rejoice in watching their daughter go about her life. Her confident stride tells of a woman comfortable with who she's become, and happy with where she's heading.

Welcome home, friend!
I didn't realize how beautiful peach trees are.
Beautiful! Drives like that are such a tapestry of God's artwork. Wow!
