Visiting Friends in Fort Valley Georgia.

Where are we today ?
         Another great night for sleeping, window open and a bit cooler, yep pretty good. Was up extra early raring to go. But wanted to wait a couple hours for the sun to come up. Got computing and coffees done before that happened.
a nice sunrise through the pecan trees
         Then a quick trip to Perry for a few groceries,and back home to putter around some more.
         After a bite for lunch we headed north to visit friends about 40 miles north of here near Fort Valley Georgia. Sharon and Dave who we met at a campground in Ehrenberg Arizona Christmas eve 2011. Ran into them again in Clermont Florida November 2012 at a campground yard sale. Have kept in touch and they follow our blog. So we were invited there for dinner today, check out their new house.
nice country side here 
       We arrived at their place about 2:30 and got the full tour of their awesome property here.
Sharons chicken coup
lotsa friendly chickens
no doggie fix for Suzie today, but she got to pet a chicken
in their barn this side is Sharon's woodworking shop
this side of the barn is Dave's shop
         They purchased this lot, cleared the land and had a perfect open concept bungalow built,(that Sharon designed) and the barn on about 3 acres of land. so quiet here wonderful. Gardens planted, chickens, eggs and a bush out the back.
nice covered porch too
the rear screened in porch is nice too
         We chatted and chatted the afternoon away , while Sharon baked a couple loaves of fresh made home made bread.
fresh out of the oven 
fresh cooked chicken
and a very tasty homemade soup, with her garden fresh vegetables 
         Now after dinner Sharon took us for a cruise on their golf cart back through the trail in the bush, ladies in the front me on the back.

          We had ourselves a real wonderful day catching up again with friends we have met on the road. So nice to be able to do that, no matter where we are. We have been together with them 3 times now in 3 different states.

         It was getting a little late and really don't like to drive too much after dark so headed back on home. Thanks guys for your hospitality.
          Gotta love it here in Georgia, even if its a bit cooler than some like, sure much better than back home. Glad you dropped in again.

  2. They were probably pretty thankful you didn't post their address or fellow RVers might have been on their doorstep every night.

  5. Oh what fun. People that do not live this lifestyle don't know what they are missing. To have friends all over the country is something Paul and I appreciate and cherish. Your friends have a gorgeous setting!

  6. What nice property and house they found. We love Georgia too, but it's starting to get a little too cool here in the mountains. We're about 200 miles north of you, I guess.
