Joint Birthday ... Stella & Me

The remnants of our Aloha Mocha at Goat Kick Coffee. Coconut, mocha, whipped cream & fudge drizzle with coconut.

We went to a Mediterranean restaurant in Evans, GA for my birthday lunch.

Free birthday dessert ... awesome raspberry sorbet.

We stopped at Heavy's BBQ aka Stella's Roadhouse. I wanted to take a pic of Stella with the sign, but there was a dog out back. The restaurant was closed but we walked around since there were plenty of photo ops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After shooting lots of great stuff at Stella's, we went into town to poke around.

 Black & white TVs in color!

Now THIS is peeling paint!!!

My free birthday Mocha Frappuccino at Starbucks.

Stella is mesmerized by the flame on our candles. She said it looks like a campfire, only smaller!

Scott & Sue always surprise me with some yummy fresh baked Super Meier Cookies. Of course they're customized for me with dark chocolate chips! I shot this with my iPhone in our cabin studio using a mug & coffee filter LOL.

Hiking at Mistletoe State Park

Time for a morning hike.

Thru the woods ...

Down by the water ...

Back at the cabin ...

Cabin Bound ... JAX to Milledgeville to Appling, GA

It looks like an old theater marquee but it's really a Barnes & Noble at Georgia College.

Of course college towns have multiple bookstores.

On the way to our cabin we stopped at Central State Hospital in Milledgeville, GA. We love photographing old abandoned buildings. It was once the largest mental institution in the world ... 2,000 acres. Georgia lawmakers authorized the building in 1837.

Birthday Week Ice Cream

Birthday week Ben & Jerry's for Stella.

Deck Demo & Rebuild

The demo is a LOT of hard work!!!

Mary & one of her 4 crowbars. I don't think I have any ... okay maybe one.

Installing a few of the new composite boards.

We can only demo & install a few at a time, so there's a place to work from.

Google & Stella approve!

Do my kneepads prove I'm working?
