I love JESUS! I'm a 7th-generation Florida native, dyed-in-the-wool Southron belle. I just recently dusted off my genealogy notes and, thanks to a long-lost relative, nearly doubled the details. We started home schooling when only 'outlaws' did it and still enjoy a daily quest for knowledge. These days, the family spends a lot of time birding, butterflying, spending as much time in 'the woods' as possible while they're still here.
Very interesting ! Isn't that strange!? - that the largest would be in Florida, when the movie (& Margaret Mitchell's book) was about Georgia. One would think that someone would have had the largest one in GA. When I was a child my mother took me to Atlanta to see the premier opening of the movie. (My father had died in '39 before the movie came out.) Mom also had a first printing (1936) of the book. Don't know whatever happened to it. Have a wonderful and blessed weekend in Jesus our Lord, Graceanne :)
Elizabeth, if you make the trip, try the Branch Ranch restaurant in Thonotosassa.
FC, I tried watching it again last year and deja vued much the same feeling. Have to do it in shifts.
Graceanne, what a wonderful memory!!! I had a first edition of a VERY old book about the Titanic, but it vanished years ago. Might be worth something now.
Aint B... dogwoods... YES! I went up to Tally yesterday to see the new Home Makeover house, but the road was still blocked. But the dogwoods and azaleas and redbuds and star & saucer magnolias made the trip more than worthwhile!

I didn't know that. I will have to take Brittney. We both love the movie.

As a child, I was sure I would die of old age before that movie finally ended.
