Bein' a Kentuckian, I'm not a hardcore southerner,...but damed if I don't feel among my kind whenever I get down this a'way.
Saw 2 Confederate flags flying today. One was on a pole about 25' high on the side of I-75 and the other was in a grave yard. I can only surmise that it was a Confederate graveyard.
I'm startin' to feel like you have to go lookin' for America these days,...and that there's damn little of it left.
My wife and I have no ties to the South but we love to go down and just look around. We have met wonderful people every place we have been. We often will stop at old grave yards and imagine the family stories. I like to stop anywhere that looks interesting and talk to the folks. I still get a kick out of seeing a cotton field.
worked in macon for 18 long hard years. lived in twiggs county next door, named after general twiggs of revolutionary war fame. the ocmulgee river runs through macon and the boundary of twiggs.
and that's all i've got to say about that. and oh, Greg Allman et.al lived in macon in the big house for a number of years.
