3 hours and we are heading for South Carolina for a few days. I'm going to make a trip to Lake Secession and follow up on a lead of a few chicken houses full of VDUBS. We'll see!

Just got back from Daytona Beach a little while ago. The race was the most exciting one I've ever seen! The finish was totally wild. There were cars wrecking all over the place! Got some great photos Cool
We went back over this morning to check out the Daytona 500 Experience (fomerly Daytona USA) including the track tour. Definitely something worth seeing. The speedway has changed a LOT since the last time I was there, 10 years ago!

My one and only contact for the VDUB chicken houses was MIA. We did make a detour on the way home to see the Georgia Guide Stones.

I'm not familiar with the Georgia Guide Stones. What and where are they? Confused

The Guide Stones are just outside Elberton, still in Elbert County, on Hwy 77 W. The message is in 8 different languages; Russian, Hebrew, Arabic Hindi, Chinese, Spanish, Swahili, English and it reads,
1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely - improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion - faith - tradition - and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth - beauty - love - seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth - Leave room for nature - Leave room for nature.

The smaller message at the top reads; Let these be guidestones to an age of reason.
