For almost 17 years, I have lived in Columbus and almost every year I say that I am going to go to the Pilgrimage, but I never do.  I just never seem to have the time or I just don’t make the time.  That changed today.  Debbie, Carey, John James, and I toured three houses in Columbus.  It was wonderful.  We toured Waverly, Bryn Bella (my favorite), and Riverview.  Riverview has not been on the pilgrimage tour for at least 20 years.  It was incredible.  If you are around Columbus, I recommend that you take the time to participate in the pilgrimage.  I hope that next year I will get to tour more houses.

On April 23rd, I will be participating in the Lowndes County Relay for Life to raise money for cancer research.  Almost eleven years ago, my mom lost her battle to cancer.  My mom was an incredible woman, who loved life and loved people.  She was one of the most giving women I have ever known.  She was always doing something for someone else.  I am participating in this walk to give back like she did all of her life and to honor her memory.  If you would like to help me reach my goal, please visit my website to make a donation.  Also, if you would like to purchase a luminaria in honor or in memory of someone who has suffered from cancer, please let me know.  They can be purchased for $10 each.
