Girlfriends’ Getaway

6/8/10 Girlfriends’ Getaway, aka T-Cup Trekking, or this year it’s a T-Cup Old South Cotton and Magnolia Tour. At this point the destination is unknown. I assume I will find out at the breakfast surprise this morning. Clues given earlier by our trusty guide were so nebulous none of us have a clue.
  • Wear red, white and blue to breakfast.
  • Fit for a queen.
  • Bring a swim suit but don’t worry, no one will see you in it.
  • Tina’s been there.
  • Georgia influences the schedule.
See why we don’t have a clue---except we all assume it’s somewhere in Mississippi.
Do we care? Not really. It’s just another aspect of the fun for 6 post-menopausal grandmothers. The real purpose is just to get together and share this season of our lives.
It will be a time to laugh, (maybe even cry) to embrace, to speak (lots of that) and maybe even to dance.
It will not be a time to be on the computer. I’m going “unplugged” so I’ll write when I return from wherever the “tour” leads. It’s a getaway that we have vowed never to let go-away, even when we have to hire a driver!

A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: (Proverbs 15:13)

Getting away with these 5 friends makes me merry indeed.
