It went like this... Not long a go; a friend of the family went to a family reunion down here in Dixie... His Dad invited him to meet out at a distant ( that is one you don’t see but ever once in a while) Uncle’s house in Standing Rock, Alabama...

Surprise... The sunshine costs in FLA; and if it don't storm then you are in a heap of trouble down there...
Many of the people from up in Yankee land move down to FLA; not knowing a thing about the place... Most don’t care if they can get a nice view from a condo on the beach...
The bugs, lots of bugs, the snakes more different types than any other state; and of course the water... FLA is surrounded on three sides by the ocean; that is salt water... Since I worked for several years with the US Dept of Interior Water Resources Division; Sub District office out of Tampa... I might just have learned a few things that most people living in the Sunshine State are not famil ... read more 48th Ga comes home..... 18 y

It seems that we all have an air of superstition and personal shame which clouds our overall view of others... Only GOD sees the heart!!
Even in Dixie; people are not always what they first seem... We all have an air of self preservation; which makes us suspicious of others... It happens with friends, in families, at work, at school, at church and of course with strangers one and all...
Why I write this is because; based on a person’s background; many people never come to truly trust another human being... We tend to get caught up by the past hurts and actions of others... I can see painfully this in my own family & friends... We judge!!
Trust must be earned on this ea ... read more A story of Memorial Day from 1920's... 18 y
Decoration Day as it was originally called by the Ladies of Dixie; and then the rest of the nation...
This is a story about some veterans of the War Between the States...
Memorial day was started by women in Dixie; in 1866 the Spring after the end of that great conflict... The original idea was to remember the fallen dead veterans, by going out and decorating the graves of these heros... Thus the name Decoration Day... Many families still go out and decorate and clean up the Graves of relatives and friends in the Southland today... It is not just limited to veterans...
But we should all learn the real meaning in the ob ... read more More sights of beauty in Dixie... 18 y

Cotton, is a crop which has made and undermined the south over the years...
Have you even seen cotton?? Well it is a plant that really takes the nutrients out of the soil... You must wait for the plant to die and the bolds to pop open... It has sharp hard leaves on the cotton bolls, which cut if and when plucked or picked... Not a really pretty plant, only about two feet high...
It is a story of the Ole Bold Weevil; there is actually a ten foot brass statue located in Enterprise Alabama... I even have a pic which we will post later... Some things in life are interesting.... HUH!! read more Spring has sprung in DIXIE.. Forgot the periwinkle... Oops!! 18 y

The Sweet Water Creek on the rise in Georgia....
We are going to talk about some Southern songs , and their influence on us...
Out of all the songs I have heard the Country, and Southern Gospel songs seem to fit life as I have lived it...
Perhaps on of the best example of many of those songs was the ones sang by Johnny Cash... "Will the Circle be unbroken?", "Ring of Fire", "I will walk the Line", "How high is the Water, Mama?", and many others...

It has shaped us and paved the way to the United States developed... What we are now was forged from this great conflict!!
We will discuss some more interesting but seldom discussed facts about the resent period of conflict between ourselves....
Many of the curses and problems we see in the society are a direct result of that time period... Examples:
1) The Union Army started, the mass use of Morphine, as a pain control for the troops... This led to literally thousands of drug addicts after the war, and started on a large scale the so called dope dealing, we see today...
2) The Confederate Navy, destroyed for all practical purposes the U.S. Whale Oil fleet... That with t ... read more |
