ON THE ROAD AGAIN!! First Stop Valdosta, GA

Yes we're finally back on the road, this time starting with a visit to see Vicki in Valdosta, GA.  Thanks to the threat of Irene, we decided to leave a day early and begin our trip on August 24.  Since this gave us an extra day with Vicki, we weren't upset in the least.  Our only concern was leaving Suzanne to contend with the potential of having to deal with the hurricane alone.  Thank goodness, Irene passed us by!

We've had a wonderful time being with Vicki and getting to learn more about Valdosta.  On Thursday, while Vicki was working, we took the bike out and rode to Tifton Harley Davidson which was 100 mile round trip ride.  It was a beautiful ride through small towns & cotton fields.

Today, Vicki had a day off so we went out to Grand Bay Wildlife Management Area which is the second largest natural blackwater wetland in the Coastal Plain of Georgia.

Tomorrow we will be sad to say goodbye to Vicki but also excited to head on to Cartersville to visit our newest cousin,  Carder Brock.
