This is what happens when we don't really plan. Half way between our last stop in North Carolina and our destination for volunteering in Tennessee, we chose to pause for some more history. And now we have the most beautiful lake front property we could imagine. We are at Allatoona Lake, about 20 miles north of Atlanta off I-75. Jerry's great grandfather, George Begley, was in the area about 145 years ago with Gen. Sherman and a few thousand others. And for a few days while we look into some family history, we are also enjoying this fabulous Corps of Engineers park. Just wanted to share.
