learning: ga history

In Camille’s final years of homeschooling, we spent some time studying Georgia history. Even so, and after a decade of living in Georgia, there are still many, many places that we have yet to visit. I plan to get back to this history project at some point, even if it has to wait until retirement…. assuming that I still live in Georgia at that point.Current Categories:
