I Am In Love......


i can see me nesting in Pavo, Georgia

the following photos are Main Street
Pavo, Georgia
part of the 12 mile yard sale

so what do you think.  good choice.  few people, much land, a sense of the past clings to this town.  i like that.  it would be nice to settle the RV in the green country side and drive to Thomasville to shop, and to Tallahasse, Florida,  or Valdosta, Georgia for doctors.
this is only the beginning of our travel, far to soon for a final decision.  
my camera battery gave out before i took photos of the homes.  next year?
pavo, georgia
is calling my name
turning my
head
main street sidewalks
three steps down to
brick edging and
main street
antiques
line the sidewalks
side streets
step back in
time 
old quarters


carve a space
snuggle in
watch fireflies


plant a garden
build a chicken coop
order chickens
marigolds and rosemary


study frugal living
make the most
of 
what is left...

let me
introduce
  
you

Pavo looks like it has just been washed, compared to dusty old northern New Mexico. It looks like a city whose commerce resides more in trading plants and old truck parts, than in shopping at big boz stores. The photos are comforting.

What a sweet looking little town. Isn't it funny how sometimes a place we've never been before calls our name and welcomes us home?

Sounds good to me. It might be challenging to have enough income to raise a family there, but for retirement, it sounds perfect!

Sandra...Pavo does look like home!
Click your heels three times Dorothy! :)

Sort of looks like Princeton, WI where I once resided...much of it was antique stores in old buildings and once a week in the city park (one whole block) there was a Flea Market...I loved it there!

Your photos were too cool today!

I Be Lovin' Ya! Oh Yeah!

I love your description and pictures.
Wish I was there and could look
through some of these shops.
Wonderful you can be adventurous.
Now if the traveling companion had come along I would do some of the same.
Now do not like leaving the woods.
Enjoy this time
special girl
