Mancat Monday - Where Mommy Was

Mommy visited Helen, Georgia this past weekend instead of staying home and snuggling with me. Helen was originally a saw mill town that developed in the early 20th century, but in the late 1960s was renovated to resemble an Alpine village in order to attract visitors.


Helen is not only picturesque, but it is also in the North Georgia Mountains, which means there is a lot of gorgeous scenery. It is also right on the Chatthoochee River.

Mommy saw lots of horsies pulling people around. This one was the cutest - it looked very Cinderella-esque.



Mommy's favorite part of Helen was probably the Chattahoochee River. The Chattahoochee forms just north of Helen, and the waters are all sparkly and clear, unlike the water that you see closer to Atlanta, which can be all dark and icky.



Mommy had a good time, but it was unfair that she had a good time and didn't take me with her.
Also, mommy and I will be taking a short break from blogging for a bit. Mommy is still busy at work, and has classwork to do, and is still recovering from bronchitis. (Yes, she went to Helen and walked around in the cold with bronchitis, but she's stubborn and it didn't make her any worse. She actually felt better and was coughing less yesterday, but she is super tired.) That means that mommy has less time to help me blog, and I have to spend more time purring on her. Sigh. A mancat's job is never done.
Don't forget about me, my sweet Sammie-pie!

That does look very picturesque, both the architecture and the natural scenery.

Hope things calm down for you mom and that she feels better soon.

Oh Tybalt and Mom you can re-post something you already did too. You totally deserve an Acatemy for all your movie work.

Quill and Greyson said...

Oh did Mommy rudely fail to wish you to feel better? Yep! Sorry! Glares at Mom.
