So last year, Jeff needed a new car. The Expedition was 10 years old, all the kids had left the nest, and for the first time we could get anything we wanted not what we needed. After dithering for a while, I said, "
Get the convertible you always wanted. Some day you will be too old to enjoy one and then you will regret you never had one." Needless to say, I've enjoyed it, too. Today, we dropped the top and headed off for a Sunday drive to Warm Springs, vacation home of FDR.
Warm Springs is a sleepy little town south of Atlanta that is a tourist destination with little antique and souvenir shops and a few restaurants.
This is the mascot of Blue Bunny Ice Cream.

Our final destination was the Bulloch House Restaurant, a southern traditional buffet restaurnat. $11.99 gets you all you can eat and sweet tea to drink.
Fried chicken, turkey and dressing, butter beans, fried green tomatoes, and a yeast roll on a 1960's melmac plate.
Dessert is a few dollars extra...Peach cobbler and lemon meringue pie. What a marvelous drive.
