Hay Days in St. Mary's

Everyone gets into Hay Days at St Mary's, GA, by displaying their own scarecrow creations. Some had fairy wings. Many had pumpkin heads. This one, displayed at a downtown church, gets our vote for most inviting. We didn't see a crow anywhere in town.

Driftwood Reclaimation Project - Common Ground Bakery






Driftwood lays sunning on the Georgia beachs, covered in sand and seaweed. It is sat on and stepped over, day after day. But it is patient, waiting to be discovered by someone who sees bridges, balconies and beauty.

Oak Grove Cemetary




Oak Grove Cemetary in Brunswick is the resting place of more than 100 Union and Confederate soldiers. The information does not specify how many Union soldiers are buried here but Confederate flags flapped in the breeze over many a still grave. The soldiers there rest in peace under their flags while, across the street, the minority-filled public housing project vibrates with childrens' voices, music and cars coming and going. Do the children come across, occassionally, to look down on the graves? Do they feel the past is strange? Do they feel the future is bright?
