As some of you know we are in Bubba Land for the birth of our grandaughter. As for Southern Hospitality let me tell you Georgia is full of it! I have never had so many people say Hi to me in my life. This is a great place

East Bay Rider · 17 July 2009, 01:11 PM

What a cute little baby.
Georgia seems nice. I drove through there once and folks seemed real nice.

allanofcalifornia · 17 July 2009, 01:17 PM

Congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter!! She's an angel!

Congratulations on the granddaughter.

And yes, Georgia is full of very friendly people. You're talking about my home state.

Rolexophile · 17 July 2009, 01:20 PM

Congratulations on the new baby! She is beautiful! Georgia rocks! I lived there for three years and sometimes wonder why I ever left... Best wishes

Watchdog · 17 July 2009, 01:21 PM

It's the best place in the world.

There is nothing like the South.

A waitress asks, "Sweet tea?" and what she means is three pounds of sugar per glass.

musert · 17 July 2009, 01:51 PM

I'm not going to lie. Georgia is the place to live. I LOVE SOME SWEET TEA WITH EACH MEAL!

lakeros · 17 July 2009, 02:49 PM

Congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter! What a head of hair she has.

redshirt1957 · 17 July 2009, 10:12 PM

They are just happy that you are only a visiting Yankee! Now if you were staying................

Prince · 17 July 2009, 10:14 PM

Great pics, Jim. The kids look thrilled!!!

redshirt1957 · 17 July 2009, 10:14 PM

Beauty of a baby and I can tell she was a "C" because of the perfectly shaped head. And look at the hair.

away36 · 17 July 2009, 10:30 PM

What a beautiful baby! You sure are blessed, Jim! I love when you post pictures! I've been to Georgia a couple of times. I love that place and yes.....super friendly folks!

idk01 · 17 July 2009, 11:17 PM

WOW Jim, what a little sweetie, Congratulations!!!!!

SSD · 17 July 2009, 11:23 PM

A wonderful little arrival, huge congratulations! Yes, Georgia is the place, warm and friendly. Nice to be home!

alohanakoni · 18 July 2009, 12:01 AM

congrats! where in bubbaland did you stay? i used to live there. more sweet tea, please =)

djhiram · 18 July 2009, 12:59 AM

Ahhh Georgia and their sweet tea

I remember going there back in '96 when Atlanta hosted the Olympics. I went into a Mcdonalds and didn't specify what I wanted to drink, but then again I wasn't asked either

That first sip of sweet tea hits you out of no where. The face I made must have been priceless! The only phrase I can think of that would explain it is - would you like some tea with your sugar?

The people are however, very very nice

Green Sub · 18 July 2009, 11:09 AM

Welcome South Brother!

mailman · 18 July 2009, 09:28 PM

My mom always had mint growing next to the backyard faucet to put in the ice tea. That brings back fond memories.

I love the sweat tea down south! Some places say they have sweat tea here but that only means that they just add more sugar. It's not the same because they don't brew the tea with the sugar to begin with and doesn't taste heavenly.

That does bring back nice memories. I remember being sent outside to cut a few sprigs before dinner. They way it smelled when you crushed them in your hands was wonderful.

sea-dweller · 19 July 2009, 01:37 AM

I traveled to Marietta, Georgia a lot in the 1990's for business trips. In the early '90's (1990) Marietta was a pretty sleepy, uncongested town. When I last visited in 1999, there was pretty heavy traffic congestion and a lot more residents. But, the folks were very friendly and cordial.

ratae1950 · 19 July 2009, 02:27 AM

Congratulations Granddaddy you have a beautiful grand daughter!!!!

JJ Irani · 19 July 2009, 07:08 AM
