Cabin in the Woods

In October of every year in the town of Elijay, Georgia they have Applefest.  Martha and Leon have a little cabin up there and all the women get together and spend as long as possible in the cabin, talking, laughing, learning about each other, and learning about our ancestors and history.  I always come away thinking I didn't have enough time and that I sstill have so much more to learn.

 This is the road into Martha's cabin  above is the beginning of the road and below you can kind of see an opening behind the truck that is to the cabin.  You do have to have four wheel drive to get in and out of the place.  When they first started down the side of the mountain I kept tellling them this isn't it this is a foot path  they just laughed and headed down the road while I screached!

 This is the creek that runs beside the cabin it is so peaceful.  You can sit on the porch and hear the water rushing over the rocks.  And since there is no internet no cell service and no tv it is fabulous!  It is amazingly peaceful.

                                              This is the road as you see it from the cabin. 

 The top picture is Martha's cabin the bottom one is Liz's cabin.  Liz lives in her cabin all year long so she has a few more of the modern conveniences, like internet.....sometimes.  If the clouds are just right in the sky!

             This is the flower pot in the side yard of Liz's house.  She said everyone needs a pot!

I had the best time visiting and watching movies.  Cathy, Martha, Desirie and I watched movies and laughed.  We had the best time and I can't wait to get back next year for the girls weekend in the mountains!
