We attended one Zone Conference this week down in Douglas, GA (part of the GA Macon Mission).  The GA Macon Mission tends to spread their Zone Conferences out over several weeks instead of all in the same week.  Makes it just a little tricky for us to get to them but we do what we can.  We LOVE driving down in the south part of GA.  Driving on the back roads allows us to have some different scenery!  LOVE the pines....remind us of the pines in Finland.

We were hoping we would be able to 'find' our little roadside stand on this trip.....and sure enough, there she was.  Just as pretty as you please!  LOVE this place!  Bought some more T.O.E. Jam!  It is sooooo good.  And the F.R.O.G. Jam is good too!

The owners of this fruit stand are so sweet.  They have been married about 1 year.  This is the 2nd marriage for both.  Their first spouse had passed away very close to the other.  They decided they would get married.....and here they are.  Running their little fruit stand!  Being just as friendly as anybody could be.

There seem to be a LOT of run-down building along these back roads.  Don't know why....there just are.

A little layout of our travels getting down to Douglas, GA.

We LOVE being at the Zone Conferences.  We decided to do a little selfie while we were all prepared for the 'official' Zone Conference photo to be taken.  The missionaries behind us seemed to enjoy it as well.

Back home at our apartment in PTC (Peachtree City) I got my new FitBit band in the mail.  I like this little design.....my summer band I guess!!

SPRING has really sprung around here.  Just gorgeous-ness all around.  

I got another doily made this week.  This one is for a new convert couple who went to the temple for their own endowment this week.  The will be sealed next week.  How sweet Brother and Sister Pickles are.

I got in the mood for a good WEDGE SALAD this week and since we were home I got to make that for us.  AND I got to use our pretty dishes from Finland.  Love them.

It doesn't happen very often but Elder/Dr. Allgaier was available to go out with the Zone Leaders who live here in our apartment complex.  Elder/Dr. enjoys going out with them.

I treated us a little bit this week by ordering some spring tulips and cute little 'boot' vase for our apartment.  Just needed to spiff things up a bit.

What a beautiful day it was to be at the temple on Saturday morning.  The temple closed early today because of the Women's Broadcast live from S.L.C.

We snuck in a little walk on this beautiful spring afternoon.  And then Elder/Dr. Allgaier went out with the missionaries again.

Low and behold......Elder/Dr. Allgaier made me a cross stitch pattern for a SMALL Atlanta Temple.  I got it made Sunday morning before church (we are on the 1 p.m. schedule).  I will be making a few of these as gifts.  I will be putting it in a round wooden frame/hoop.  Stay tuned on this one!......

Another great week......NO Zone Conferences coming up this week.  That is a rare week for that to happen.  We are going to take a little road trip this coming week....we hope, if all goes well with our schedule.  Stay tuned on that one too......LOVE OUR MISSION!
