Joe is only working Monday through Friday 8am - 5pm which may become an issue for him as he tends to be quite the work-a-holic! But for now, he is happy to delve into our new town and surroundings with us!
Joy and Dennis (my mother-in-law and her husband) came down on Saturday morning. We got in the van with no real plans or intentions we were just exploring. We headed. . . in some direction towards Pine Mountain. We stopped by Wild Animal Safari, we are definitely having Caden's Birthday Party here! We drove by Butte's Farm and into Pine Mountain. What a cute little town! We just kept driving and came across Callaway Gardens and decided to head up the mountain!
I read a book on the legacy of the Roosevelts recently. I read about the "Little White House" and "Warm Springs, GA." President FDR would visit Warm Springs for the healing waters that came out of the natural springs after he contracted Polio. He built the "Little White House" for himself and his family's use while he visited. He died in the Little White House.
Well, we are driving on this beautiful mountain and ran upon Warm Springs, GA! It was so exciting for me, I don't even know why, but I was like a kid at an amusement park! Coy and Joe thought it was really neat, Joy was excited because she, too, had visited Warm Springs Rehab as a child. "The Little White House" is a must do when you visit us!
It was a great day! A fabulous first weekend for us in LaGrange!
