Belated report – late nightYesterday (Sunday) I attended the Hootersville social event of the year. With such a target rich environment, there are multiple photos posted here.
My buddy P’s family hosts a Spring Social every year timed to peak with the blooms. The Big House (a grand Victorian mansion) served the food, sweet tea, and had seating on the west lawn. Wine and witty repartee were served at P’s bungalow in the back. They recently built a large veranda for the grand-daughter’s upcoming wedding. The entire estate takes up over 70 acres which they are developing section by section. Despite the risk of snakes, I really enjoy the bamboo garden featuring dinosaur statues (sorry – forgot to take a photo). P and the Queen collect dolls – a common hobby down South. There are buggies and china cabinets here and there about the house, each filled with dolls. There is a doll dedicated room that holds the majority. While I did not get shots of all the treasures, I will be a repeat customer and will show more later if you are interested in continuing the photo feature.
All in all, I met many fascinating people, enjoyed the weather, seeing friends P has already introduced to me and had a blast. Now the town sucks again until next Spring.
CREEPY!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe veranda is beautiful. And the dolls are very scary. Are they worth something? I don't get it.
