It is also the ONLY town in my county. All of the other places are called "villages." One of the villages has 1 stop light and it is a flashing light. My dad grew up in a "village" that is in my county that has less than 1,000 people in it and most of those people were relation:-) I know about small towns. I am from the epitomy of small town life. Oh, and the town where I teach is REALLY small too. We have 400 students in the 7th through 12th grade and 99% of the students are white. We have no African American students.Aimsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2785951125329261604.post-9458995173443572202009-04-21T13:38:00.000-07:002009-04-21T13:38:00.000-07:00I'm from Hazlehurst,GA.

Their parents (love them!) and my parents are still close.

The residents of Fredonia didn't find out about it until it showed up on the news (columbus WRBL). Fredonia is where Auburn University originally started. They have a website now -- www.savefredonia.com. The conspiracy theory is that Bubba paid off the Commissioners.

It is like as soon as I get over him, Satan tries to lure me back in. I have told him I cannpt get caught up again. So far, so good. Just pray for me.

Their mom had a bridal party brunch for us. It was so great to see them and catch up. Caycee and I have caught up on facebook since then. We all use to twirl together too. But don't tell my Nashville friends that. I pretty sure if they found out I use to twirl it would be a constant joke :)<br><br>TashaDawgfanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00249662560407638838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2785951125329261604.post-12436458863228637952009-04-22T11:47:00.000-07:002009-04-22T11:47:00.000-07:00Caycee was the first twirler we had in the band si...Caycee was the first twirler we had in the band since the early 80's! She transferred and asked to audition as a feature twirler.
