Congrats to our Valdosta Wildcats, America’s winningest high school football team, on a 45-42 state quarterfinal victory tonight.
Next Friday Valdosta will host the state semifinal right here as Buford will make the long drive down from Gwinnett to South Georgia. Should be one heck of a ballgame.

A few peaceful South Georgia Thanksgiving scenes from our trip to see my in-laws today.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING Y’ALL.

I love hearing about regional and family recipes and traditions shared on this date. What are y’all making?

@mrsemilyfinch.bsky.social is contributing sweet potato casserole and I’m doing turnip greens for our get together.

We have now entered flight tracking season. Gotta love SEC football!

Got my turnips. My annual contribution to the Thanksgiving feast.

I’m going to share a couple of family recipes with you all for cornbread dressing. One also includes giblet gravy, or “gibblet” in my mother’s spelling.
There’s about a hundred ways to make this so if anyone else has a recipe feel free to share!

Pretty nervous. I took on the task of cooking steaks for my father’s 80th birthday.
Fifteen Filets. Not cheap. And everyone counting on me. Will know the truth real soon! 😬

Tonight at 7 pm from Gainesville.

Hoping we only hear Rocky Top once or twice. Catchy tune but lord it’s been a long day when you hear it over and over and over. Go Gators!

Second round Georgia High School football playoffs are tonight. Our Valdosta Wildcats are hosting while our Lowndes Vikings have to make a 510 mile r/t to metro Atlanta. (Travel distances in football playoffs here are absurd). 🏈🏈

Beautiful morning.

No rain in sight.

We are getting parched.

A dirt road, a beautiful day, and two good dogs. It’s all a man could ever ask for.

Great first round wins for both our local teams in the Georgia state football playoffs.
The road gets decidedly harder from here. 🏈

Stan Rome, a legendary player for a legendary team, the 1971 National Champion Valdosta Wildcats. Widely considered one of the greatest teams in Georgia high school history.
Longtime Clemson and KC Chiefs fans may also remember Stan. 🏈🏈

It’s real and it’s spectacular. 😎

This response to my innocent post about enjoying a nice fire last night is a near perfect encapsulation of why folks really cannot stand a certain type of liberal. Imperious busy bodies who are just as Puritan as the most hard core conservative evangelical, in their own way.

Finished this tonight. A somewhat lesser known work, while it did not, in my opinion quite reach the level of my favorite Faulkner (Absalom! Absalom!) is still a great read and a very creative story (two separate stories, actually).

May read Henry Miller next. Have never read him. Any fans of his?

Not much better than the smell of wood smoke on the first cold night of the year. Thanks to Hurricane Helene I’ve got plenty of firewood spilt and stacked!

Homemade vegetable beef soup at Finch household. What are y’all having good?
