Our family planned and spent three days at Callaway Gardens this past week. The Southern Pine Cottage was fully furnished and the meals were great. I grilled hot dogs the first night with the trimmings and cooked very good steaks night number two. We attended the "Birds of Prey Show" and the owl's left wing touched the right side of my hair as he or she passed over our heads. The "Butterfly Center" was a treat and pictures were taken. We visited the Memorial Chapel the 2nd day and Pete and Julie read the bible to put us in our place. The Vegetable Garden was nice and best of all, the Horticultural Center was just beautiful. Jolie took us on a, supposed "short cut", and we almost ended up in the FDR state park. The walking and bike trails were nice and the flowers were still blooming. We stopped and fed the two pound bream and I really wished I had brought my pole. Our girls and their hubs enjoyed the hot tub and the cold water in the large pool. Carrie and I left about 10:00AM and Pete and Julie stayed longer and walked around the beach. All in all, I think we really enjoyed spending this time together. I know wife and I had a great time, just being with family. I really enjoy looking back sometimes at the "good times" and great memories. I think this trip to Callaway Gardens will be one of those times. Love you guys. Mom and Dad

I agree. I wish we'd had a week there, but cherish all the memories we're still making together. I really got the VIP treatment with that nice cottage, great food, and facial/reflexolgy treatment from my bro-in-law. (Many hidden talents, that one).
