During our visit to St. Simons Island last week, we saw many trees covered with Spanish moss. Apparently, the plant is neither Spanish nor moss...

Six hours. We drove six hours in the car and still ended up in the same state. How is that even possible?

I'll admit I'm not the most patient road trip companion. Sometimes it's all I can do not to ask my husband, "Are we there yet? How many more miles?"

Many miles and hours notwithstanding, our destination and the people we were going to see were well worth the wait...
