44 Belles and Beaus from First Baptist Peachtree City enjoyed a wonderful Southern Buffet today at the Blue Willow Inn in Social Circle.


There was a bountiful array of food, including a soup and salad bar, fresh Southern Vegetables and side dishes, a variety of meats and fish, breads, and desserts. (I enjoyed vegetables, soup, biscuit, dessert and sweet tea today!) Blue Willow Inn meals are "all you can eat," and some in our group went back more than once. (I won't name names!)


 Some of our group enjoying the food and each other. 


Here I am, with friends, in front of the gift shop overlooking a lovely pond.


Enjoying the breeze and the rocking chairs after lunch. Note the lemonade and lemon water for guests (cart at bottom left.)


Ted Montesano and His Magic Keyboard (phone 404-573-9080) prompted some of us to do some spontaneous "aerobic exercise" after lunch!

Peaches are Peaking in the Peach State!

Peaches are Peaking in the Peach State!

Thirty Peachtree City-ites from First Baptist Church boarded a bus early yesterday morning, and headed via beautifully verdant back roads toward William Brown's orchards in Montezuma, Georgia. We bought peaches and produce and enjoyed delicious homemade peach ice cream! The zinnias in Brown's bounteous self-pick fields were beautiful and inviting, but with high humidity, and close to 100 degrees, it was simply TOO hot to contemplate picking anything! !

We also enjoyed a lunch of fresh vegetables, meats, and baked goods and Yoder's Mennonite restaurant, then stopped in Thomaston for Dairy Queen snacks on the drive home. All the good food put many of us to sleep on the bus on the way back! A good time was had by all!

Next month's JOY trip: Blue Willow Inn.
