Dillard, GA

This past weekend we took a little trip to Dillard, GA, about an hour and a half away! We decided to go ahead this weekend since the next 3 are all full with weddings and a quick trip to Virginia Beach that Pastor Hine would like for us to take! After that, school will be just about here. The summer is flying by so fast! Dan finishes his summer school course on Friday!!!
So, back to the Dillard house...the grounds are beautiful and there is a lot of pasture land around, so it feels "away" (even though it isn't to far away from the great town of Dillard and "bustling metropolis" of Clayton). We enjoyed our stay Friday night and especially enjoyed lunch at the Dillard House Restaurant. They serve everything family style and you get to take leftovers home. It's all you can eat, and we enjoyed every bite!!!

After lunch, we went to Foxfire, which is an educational program that was organized to do research on Appalachian communities and heritage. They have moved several buildings to this property and use it as an educational tool. It reminded us of Cade's Cove (except it wasn't free)! We enjoyed looking around.

It is always nice to get away--sooo refreshing!
