It's a beautiful Sunday morning in Ellijay, Ga. Where is Ellijay, you may be asking. That would not surprise me because even though I'm from Ga, I don't recall ever having been here before. It's one of those quaint little towns with sidewalk vendors and little restaurants that are still family owned and operated. Antique stores and hand made items are the consumable items of choice and the girls and I did our best to support the local economy.
Our adventure in this little known point of North Ga mountain beauty did not just happen, it was the result of a unfortunate cancellation of a bridesmaids outing for Tori and her College roommate.
Tori has the honor of being in another wedding this next month and the bride, her college roommate, had the disappointing experience of having her big weekend with the girls cancelled last minute. When Tori found out she called me and we were able to reserve this beautiful cabin in no time at all.
Go Sarah! It belongs to an old girlfriend of mine.
So here we are. The sun is now streaming down on my secluded spot on the 2nd floor porch, just off my bedroom in the loft. Even my abscessed tooth, for which hydrocodone is now standard issue, is just slightly more tolerable at this vantage point. It turned out to be a No male evening with Mark and the boys staying home.
The rest of the bridal party will arrive today probably just as I am headed out. Work calls me for tomorrow.
But for now, I'm finishing up a cup of vanilla flavored yumminess caffination and contemplating a walk on the trails. Is it coincidence that "say Yes to the Dress" is the first thing that my girls turn on?
I resemble that "old friend" remark! Glad y'all had fun!
