  • Southern Memories

    A Christmas memory? Oh, so many it is hard to narrow it down. How about this one. Those are kind of peachy pink pajamas aren’t they Beverly? This was taken in 1967 (yes I am that old). From left to right that is my little sister Linda, my big sister Tammy and me with the…

  • A Southern Santa

    It’s Christmas Eve. Is everybody ready for Santa? I just checked the Norad Santa Tracker and saw that he is in Australia right now. My father used to grow a beard around Christmas and when he did he looked like Santa Claus. I remember when my nephew was young he thought his Papaw was Santa…

  • Southern Christmas Pecans

    I’m watching the squirrels raid my pecan tree, carrying their treasures away to both eat and hide. I hope they leave me some. I remember picking up pecans with my mother. We would take them to a place in town that would crack them for you. All you had to do then is pick out…
