| 1 - Wike Branch, Towns Co., GA (Early May, 2026) Sheldon and I went lookin for an old chimney he had seen years ago. We didn't find any sign of it, but saw a few unusual sights. |

| Old vintage washing machine We came across several old trash dumping spots, and this was at one of them. |

| We had seen several Lady's Slippers in bud, but were surprised to see one in bloom already. As it turned out, almost everything bloomed a week or two early in the spring of 2026. |
