Museum of Aviation, Warner Robbins AFB in Georgia-July 2013

Our traveling RV family and bestie friends came down (minus the hubby as he has to work.......)
to visit us from Virginia and we took the time to do several things.

One of them was a visit to the Warner Robbins Air Force Base Museum of Aviation. It is a little over an hour from my house.




Here is Saleena (my cousins daughter) and Robbie in a ejector seat.

Here is a pic of Jordan, Saleena and Robbie when we still touring inside.




Maybe some day the two below will want to fly a fighter jet, huh?
Never know.........




We really did have a great time.





Everyone should go, there are alot more than planes there. There is written history and also lots of artifacts to see.  Not to mention it is FREE !!!

See ya'll !


ATV Riding, Wren, GA July 2013, Part I

We were very lucky that our friends from North Carolina, David & Donna, were able to come down for a visit around 4th of July this year.

We took the opportunity to go ATV riding at Sunnyside ATV Park about an house north of our home.

David was best man at our wedding almost eighteen years ago - man we're getting old.........

So, off we go, well sorta......
It was more like DOWN we go !


I wouldn't ride mine down that ditchy hill - so Jeff did !

We really DID have an awesome time.

See ya'll !

Bridges Family Reunion - Soperton, GA

The last weekend in June was the Bridges Family reunion. This is on my husband's side of the family. It was held on his uncle Mitchell's farm in Soperton.  The reunion was Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We were only able to attend Saturday and Sunday.

Below are some pics, for those in the know, which isn't necessarily me - but after twenty years - I am still trying!









A good time was had by all. We missed all the morning games, but the kids loved them all and had a great time.

See Ya'll down the road !

Still in Atlanta - this is day two.........

On Saturday we get up early and have the full breakfast buffet at the hotel. Then we take the shuttle to the World of Coca Cola (which is next to the Aquarium).  It was so much nicer that I ever expected. I had such an awesome time. The coke tastings from around the would were VERY interesting. Boy, there are a few I wouldn't give my worst aquaintance !




Of course you gotta find the Polar Bear - we love those commercials in the winter!


There is a great 3-D movie there. So we all had to put on our glasses for the show.



So after all the movies, and tastings at the factory we headed out for a bite to eat with some cousins who leave outside Atlanta. They wanted to meet at The Vortex, which is known for their awesome hamburgers.



This place has such great burgers.......WOW......and the interior of the place has great stuff to look at (ok, I know you see the poster in the back.........)



Even the menu had some interesting suggestions written it. Look at the two I am showing you here!



Pretty darned funny we thought.........

We left on Sunday morning (after our buffet of course) and head back home to Soperton.......

See Ya'll down the road

Atlanta - Here we come !

My mother-in-law, Laura from South Florida is visiting with us for a couple of weeks. We were hoping to get in some swim time in the new pool but weather did not permit us to do so except maybe two times while she was here.

We did, however, make it off to Atlanta for two nights.  We stayed at the Fairfield Inn by Marriott in Atlanta and had a beautiful suite.


We were right at the entrance to the Underground, but we did not go there as each night we got back it was very late........

We went on Friday to the Georgia Aquarium which was really interesting.  The huge tank that they have the whales in and the great Manta Rays was really awesome......They had black tipped nurse sharks and all kinds of other species in there.



In other exhibits and other parts of the aquariums we also saw some interesting creatures:


( See - they are pretty intersting! - hahahaha)




After a long day at the aquarium we headed out to eat at No Mas which is a Mexican restaurant. The food was great....We ALL had a good time.

Stay tuned for tomorrows activities............
