Earlier this week I had to make a day trip day south…yes for even me. As I headed back the handy dandy GPS guided down two lane roads that made “Lonely Town” seem crowded…
The big advantage? The southern Georgia sunset all to myself…

Quilt Room with a View
By Beverly Hicks Burch
The expected high today is forecasted to be 74°. And, that’s not the warmest it’s been so far this March!

There are Signs…
By Beverly Hicks Burch

Along the Savannah River
By Beverly Hicks Burch
This past weekend Tall & Handsome and I decided to take a break from “nesting” (translate unpacking a bazillion boxes).
