There is not too much difference in the way we live here in Georgia. I was brought up and raised in a cotton mill town here in central Georgia. As a matter of fact i just bought a house in my hometown that was built back in 1900. and there is nothing more enjoyable than just living the simple life in the country. I look forward to seeing more of your videos .

I never liked little Debbie's actually,and after hearing a story or two of them,I for sure didn't!!! 😄 Then I saw your video. Little Debbie I was told was good friends with Walmarts Walton girl years ago. Walmart started in Arkansas.
