Ahoy once again

Ahoy and welcome aboard once again to me blog! I haven’t really had anything much to write about since my last adventure to Pebble Hill. Nothing has changed in that respect. I did a photo op with me gear and posted this here photo as well as changed me profile pic. No news to be speakin of at this point. as I haven't really done anything to write about, only just to play catch-up on writing in this thing. All my projects are on hold for the moment although I hope to be up and running soon. My last attempt at movie making turned out a little odd, being that a lot of the scenes wanted to jump a bit. I think it was more or less a problem with the digitations and I decided it will be good enough since it is only for family movies anyway. I just haven't felt like getting out to do anything really, so I guess I have just been really lazy but maybe when it warms a bit I may get "the Fever" and do a little fishing or something but for now I will be staying around here, working, and sleeping.....That be all fer now.....Shipwreck

Pebble Hill

Today I went to Pebble Hill Plantation. It is one of the many plantations here in south Georgia, and the only one to my knowledge open to the public. It is located about 5 miles outside of Thomasville, Georgia on US 319. It was really a interesting place to see, and if you haven’t, I think you should spend the to see it if you are in the area. Of course it being a plantation, the grounds are quite large and the house is a Mansion, with lots of finery. The neat thing about going to a place like that is you get to see all the different things that people with wealth acquire during their lifetime. There are lots of paintings in the house, a lot of them are of birds and turkeys. The owners were quite fond of hunting and used this as their winter hunting lodge. There is also lots of paintings of hounds and horses. The owners also were into show horses and have quite a few trophies and ribbons about the place. Fine china and all the other trimmings are all about. There are pictures of President Eisenhower, when he visited, and Pictures of President Carter when he visited. Unfortunately they wouldn’t allow us to take pictures, But I do have one of the postcards of the Indian Room.



If you like artifacts, then that room is definitely worth seeing . Well that’s all for now. Until next time…….Shipwreck

Staying Awake all Night

What do you do when you can't sleep? Well I ended up doing catch-up work, You know, the stuff you don't really want to do until the last minute. Things like laundry, the dishes and just general housework. I had taken a nap when I returned from work and woke up around 1 am, and that was it, housework it was. I did find this neat internet rock station on Biglemonkey.com called Yar Radio. It was something to listen to while messing around with the computer. I also tried to reload files previously lost from an update I did earlier. As far as the Boston movie goes, well it still going. I am going to finish the intro and ending sometime this week, I hope and then it will be ready to put it away in the files. No more adventurous fishing tales at this time, Although I am still waiting for my bream to get back from the taxidermist 5 months later. Hoping for that call any day now. Today is dentist day. You, know the day everybody dreads. They poke around and tell you to take better care of your mouth, just so they can get 300 dollars from you and tell to come back in 6 months so they can do all over again..That's all the news for now......Shipwreck
