This year, we spent Thanksgiving with Cheryl's side of the family (and more), at a farmhouse in rural southwest Georgia.
 |
Let's see if I get this right... Cheryl's brother's wife's sister's farm house. Yeah, that's it. It's near Colquitt, GA....roughly: Here. They don't live there -- it's more for vacationing, hunting, renting out, etc. |
 |
Most of the cars of everyone that was there. I think there were 24 people, 3 large turkeys, 1 large ham, 7 pies, and plenty of tasty leftovers. |
 |
Cheryl's brother, Al, Cheryl's mom, me, and Cheryl, of course...Oh, and one of the turkey deep fryers at the left. |
 |
Cheryl's nephew, Cole (far left), and niece, Sara (far right) and a couple of their cousins. |
 |
Cheryl's sister-in-law, Jen...and....um....darn, I should know
this....too many new names for me, I guess. Possibly Cheryl's
brother's wife's brother? Sorry, whoever you are. (Having 36 aunts & uncles and countless cousins myself, you would think I'd be better at remembering names....but I'm terrible at it.) |
 |
Cheryl and her mom. |
 |
We stayed at
The Tarrer Inn in Colquitt -- a
Bed & Breakfast that had a wonderful breakfast buffet (as if we
needed more food ;-). This is us in front of their Christmas tree, just before we left. |
 |
What's that? Snow in Georgia?! |
 |
It kind of looks like snow, but... |
 |
It's cotton, ready to be harvested. |
 |
A lot of it already was. They bail it up into these huge blocks that they leave at the road side of the field, presumably awaiting a truck to come and pick it up. I wonder how they get this huge thing on to the trucks? |
