Some things you see everywhere in Georgia

I haven't been to one of these, but they are all over. As well as Game Stop. I think we can get to 3-4 different Game Stops in 10 minutes.

Yeah you are reading that right. D.U.I. And it stands for exactly what you think it stands for. Most of the signs I've seen are big Yellow signs though. Makes you feel super good about the drivers down here. But haven't we talked about this before? 20 over or 10 under all the time?



With the Spring has come the appearance of ant hills the size of my head all over the place. They are all reddish (Georgia clay) and often quite large. Yuck.
Today Miriam stepped on one. We were playing run up the hill and throw ball to mommy. At first I thought she stepped in dog-do. Until I ran up there and saw the ants swarming. She was wimpering a bit, so I picked her up and (ran down the hill) and started brushing ants off her. I didn't get them all off (there wasn't tons, but several) until we were home, they had migrated up her pants. So she had quite a few bites on her feet and right leg. Luckily she seems to be fine. I haven't had to give her any medicine (this time) and the little welts are getting smaller already.

Crud. I'm having second thoughts about this yard business.

*Which by the way, you asked for more inforamation (see poll at right) and you are going to get it. Just not today...
