Georgia on my Mind



by Judy Allpress, The Wayfarers' Newport Office

We (Michael West, Judy Allpress and Alessandro Tombelli - all pictured above) had a wonderful week full of action in Georgia visiting Atlanta, Savannah, St. Simon’s Island, Sea Island, Hilton Head and Skidaway Island.

The purpose of the southbound swing was to get in touch with some of our guests and to see our loyal walking friends face to face.  We were so lucky!

Introductions were made, parties were given and we had such a good time.  We walked beautiful trails, visited and toured private homes and gardens and made many new friendships all thrown in with lots of history and Georgian culture!  At the Buckhead Diner in Atlanta, we hosted a brunch for 26 people.  After a tour of Oakland Cemetery, we hosted a lunch at 6 Feet Under (I remember the savory taste of the fish stew).

We take The Wayfarers on the road each year across the USA.  Maybe your town will be next!
