Almost Home Sweet Home

Categories :

Coming into the Doboy Sound late in the afternoon on Thursday,  we were welcomed by the Sapelo Island Light House.  It feels good to  be almost home!

 We left home on Thursday, March 28.  We left he United States on Sunday, March 31.    Steve has been away from home for 58 days.  I went home for 7 days in early May, then returned with Caroline. Caroline’s friends joined us for a few days, then Lainey flew over on Mother’s Day.  We have had a fabulous time, but the words to that song by Ray Charles keep running through my mind…

Georgia, Georgia
The whole day through (the whole day through)
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind)

I’m say Georgia, Georgia
A song of you (a song of you)
Comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines

Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you

I said Georgia, oh Georgia
No peace I find (peace I find)
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind)

Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you

Woah, Georgia, Georgia
No peace, no peace I find
Just an old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind)

I said just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
