I'm really enjoying my time back home in Georgia. It's been hot, but I'm really enjoying the weather anyway. Reminds me of my summers growing up here :-) Here's the view out of my window at my sister's house. I love looking out at all of that
green!
This is a clump of
spanish moss that my other sister brought home from
Savannah. We were wondering if it would take root and grow since we live further north. Well, as you can see it's still thriving and it has been at least a decade or more since it was brought here. I love experiments that work ;-)
This is a plant that is native to the region and it is called
butterfly root .
It grows wild around here. According to one of my sisters, our grandmother used to make a tea out of this back in the day for medicinal purposes. I just love the pretty orange flower.
This is my sister's birdhouse. The photo came out a little washed out, but you get the idea. My sister
LOVES birdhouses. I think that's cool. If I were a bird, I'd love to drop in here from time to time :-)
This is a photo that I took yesterday. I just love looking up through the canopy of leaves. The sun was making its presence known.
Now, I'm heading out to take more photos and enjoy the day. I hope you have a great day wherever you are! Until next time...

Hey Hun!!! You sound real excited to be back home! Hope you enjoy your stay!
Great pics!! Glad to hear that you are having a great time and are coping with the hot weather, though having lived in England now for a number of years I would imagine you are well used to that!! ;-)
Hello Dori,
Love those pics. Anything regarding nature will catch my eye. :-)
Oh, it just looks beautiful like I thought that it would. I would love to visit there one day but I don't think a short holiday would be enough (secretly, I just wish I could move to the US!)
Loving the pics Dori!

I stumbled across your blog while searching for "green marketing". I understand yours is a personal blog, keep your posts coming!
I especially love the first pic from the window and how everything outside is GREEN.
Wow. Kudos!
Do soak up all the time you have in GA. There's no place like home.
Spring/Summer in GA, isn't it just beautiful?
Yes, indeed, it is so very hot here in GA! So, glad you were able to come home for awhile! I'm loving every bit of the heat! Have a great time and just know u have someone over here in Dallas, GA thinking of you!

Hey Shae,
It surely is. I'm astonished at how green everything is. I had forgotten :) I won't forget anymore.
Vchelle,
It has been hot, but I'm with you...I'm loving every minute of it :) It hasn't bothered me at all. I guess that my body is soaking it all up while it can. LOL. You are so sweet, thanks dear, and I'll say the same to you, even when I'm back across the Atlantic, just know that you have someone there thinking of you too! And you are always welcome :)
Tink,
Thanks! Yes, it has been a great trip :)
Lis,
Thank you! :) Oh wow, okay, I will pick up the tag when I get back home. I love this! :)
Nothing like being back home among family members and old friends. Sounds like a great time.
Kicha,
It truly was a great time! I saw SO many people that I hadn't seen in many years. It was a true homecoming! :)
