friends are like a cozy quilt

As we settle into our new suburbia, we are making new friends especially at church. But it was nice to have friends and family come to visit us this month. Curtis and Bonnie were on their motorbike vacation in the mountains and ended their trip about an hour from us in Helen, GA. They came by on the way home to Florida and spent the afternoon with us.



Later that week, Cindy's brother Carl flew in to Atlanta (for his job) and stopped by to see her.










The second weekend our friend Paula, who lived next door to us, came to spend a few days with us. We went to the Georgia mountains for the Sorghum Festival in Blairsville and the Apple Festival in Ellijay - all in one day. We have enjoyed the apples, apple cider, and other goodies from there.

Last Tuesday, I took the day off from work and we drove over to SC to visit Mom and Dad. Paula had never been to Chimney Rock, NC, so we drove up for lunch. It was a nice day for a visit - the sky was cloudy but not raining so the sun did not get too hot.



Then, this past Saturday we traveled to SC again, this time for Nathan and Eva's wedding in the morning and to celebrate my birthday in the afternoon.
We were able to catch up on the latest news with family and friends from Jacksonville and Cowpens which made for a nice day
