John Returns From The Glorious South


John, my friend and colleague at the DU Bookstore, returned this week from a Thanksgiving visit to his home in Georgia.  He and his family spent part of his visit on a farm, riding horses and enjoying the rural Georgia countryside. I asked John if there were any old antebellum plantations in the area, but evidently General Sherman  took care of most of those during his famous "March to the Sea."  Fortunately, John tells me that Georgians are no longer bitter about that - "at least the educated ones, anyway."  Just what does that mean? We Northerners have all seen Deliverance too, you know.
