Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!

Have you been to the lovely little town of Helen, Georgia?

My mom and I took a quick trip down to that area and returned yesterday. We enjoyed the sweet little alpine town and its charms. We even grabbed a chance to try apple strudel, which was delicious!

We found it relaxing to get away for a couple of days to do nothing special. Most of our time we spent scouring thrift stores for interesting treasures. The good news—we both found some!

I’ll be sharing the highlights on my YouTube channel soon, so be in the lookout for that. In the meantime, here are a couple of shots from our trip.

You don’t always have to travel too far to have fun, but sometimes it’s just nice to explore a new location.

Having fun.
