SwampGravy
Swamp Gravy, Georgia's Folk Life Play, has been a love on mine for several years. When I lived in that area, I was a cast member (trust me, ALL are amateurs) and loved every second on and off stage. We performed at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, in Washington DC at the Kennedy Center, and of course at home, every spring and fall! Colquitt earned it's place on the map because of Swamp Gravy.
Check it out on SwampGravy.com, much more detailed.
More on the young man and his son at the end.
For the first time in its history, a play was repeated! The choice was *The Gospel Truth*, my personal favorite and evidently the favorite of many more. The first one was in the mid-90's! It was great being in the audience, knowing all the lines, the songs and enjoying it from a different perspective.
John and I arrived an hour early, just to walk around and watch the ladies quilting, look at the bricks with our names on them, touch the special woodwork in Cotton Hall (a restored cotton warehouse) and look at the museum rooms of antiques left over from the ancestors that the storied are about!
Two fellow castmates that are still performing, Gayle and Charlotte, both the backbone of Swamp Gravy.
Angie is also a former cast member, Mary left and came back, sang the original *Amazing Grace* in a manner that brought tears to your eyes. While it is being sung, folks are raising their candles, verbally remembering their deceased relatives.
This is a case of *You won't believe who I saw at Swamp Gravy!*
Scott, a pilot at my cousins crop dusting business, is fairly new to Georgia, came about the time he and his wife were newly married. They have joined us for Family holiday gatherings for so long that we feel related! Then, his family is Mormon so we always have something to share as we frequent our favorite Utah Mormons! Feels like we are *double related* as they are just part of our family now. She was at home with the baby who is now 20 months old. Both Scott and son are GREAT *Swampers*. I had no idea they had joined the cast, was good to see them!!
He had his sister with him and she is headed for her mission in Guam!
Papa John and I loved every minute of it... the season finale is next weekend, I am taking Sky, Blace and Karen for a ladies day out!

Class of 1966 Ladies
The Grand Finale!
Fredonia Church, special music by Annette, sermon by Hugh,
followed by lunch at the Plaza.
What a TREAT!
Mostly due to FaceBook, several of us were able to get together for a *Ladies Only* mini-reunion for Thomasville High School Class of 1966!
A delightful stranger took this picture, his Cocker Spaniel joined us!
We met at the Rose Gardens, swapped tales and pictures, moved on to George and Louie's for some Famous Greek Salad (George was also a classmate).
After lunch, some shopped the bricked streets downtown, later met at *The Homecoming* for catfish dinner, then will meet up again for Church Sunday Morning.
GLORY GLORY TO OLE T'VILLE!
