  • First hike of the year with Godfrey

    First hike of the year with Godfrey

    We kicked off the new year with a hike at Bearden Creek Falls, near Dawsonville, GA. Considering Godfrey’s age (he’s 10 years old now if you’re keeping track), I chose an easy trail as he gets a little stiff after these hikes now. It was brisk in the late morning but compared to the heat…

    Oliver Anthony revives real country music

    TLDR; Get Oliver Anthony’s album, “Hymnal of a Troubled Man’s Mind”, direct from his website olveranthonymusic.com I stopped listening to country music sometime in the late 1980s. Too much pop music was infiltrating the genre, and I wasn’t interested in fake country songs. When I was younger, I listened to a lot of Waylon Jennings,…
