Closings, barbecue, books, music and the Braves win too!

I love driving through the area between Griffin and Columbus. Particularly with the rain we have received during the Winter and the Spring. There are so many pretty fields and forests and everything is so green. I drove through Pike County out to Woodbury in Meriwether County, then continued down to Manchester, home of the writer Stuart Woods, then across to Waverly Hall, Ossahatchie, then on to Columbus. After conducting a short closing in Columbus, I headed over to eat barbecue at my second favorite barbecue place in Georgia, then took a drive around Columbus to Barnes and Nobles, where I found a couple bargains. Then, I headed up through Harris County along US 27 to Callaway Gardens. Everything was so lush and beautiful. The fairways at the golf course were really manicured and green.

By the time I made it back into Pike County, the sun was sinking over my left shoulder into the trees and fields I was leaving behind. The skies were decorated with pink cotton candy. The baby blue and the pink was like preppy power in the skies. It was really pretty, even though I couldn't stop to enjoy it much.

Now the day is over and it is about time to end the day and go to bed. I am running darks in the dryer and emptying the dishwasher before I do in fact go to bed. With beginning my day in Hampton at 7:00 o'clock a.m., this has been a long day. Perhaps, I should bypass the rest of the television programming and get in bed.

Oh, and the Braves did win against the Cubs at home tonight. Good pitching. Good relief pitching. And just enough hitting to win it. 2-0. Too bad cousin Jeff.
