Crazy Georgia!

The experiences over the last week have been really amazing. I don't know where to start.  I haven't gotten to update the blog as much so here it goes.  I was visiting with the people at TheCause USA for about 4 days.
There I met this funny guy named Nick he always smiles just like me.  The people there who run the place (Deborah) kept me fed with smoothies every morning and soup in the evening which was awesome.  I left there Monday morning around 8am and headed to Atlanta area.  During my travels a funny thing happened; I made contact with Lee Phillips, the owner of Easy Ride Golf Cars in a little crazy old marble mining town Ball Ground Georgia.  Mr. Phillips offered to repair my engine for free at his golf cart shop, funny as it may seem, the mechanic Wade was really smart.  The engine valve cover gasket and carburetor gasket were replaced with new gaskets and the battery was filled too.  This was awesome they did all this work for free.  During this time a local newspaper, Cherokee Tribune, interview me.  Later that day in the afternoon I had my interview with CNN for the show News to ME.  It was really cool.  They invited me to their small production house (an actual house).  Supposedly I was the first person invited so they say.  It was an exciting and funny experience.  They were joking around a lot and gave me a mostly empty tin of cashews and two sweet potatoes.  They probably thought I was a quack.  I think the video will be on TV in a few weeks on CNN news.
After this interview I went to my final destination in Georgia; a sweet little farm in Bowdon Georgia.  This farm is a little different than the last farm I visited.  The animals here are much healthier and act really different.
The best thing about this farm is the bunny rabbits! They have a lot of baby bunny and also 3 two day old goats which I got to bottle feed!  The couple who run the farm are amazing.  They are down to earth and really nice and very hard working.  They don't have showers, only baths, and they share bath water!!!  They also have a huge garden that ill probably get to help with.  And I have a feeling they want me to milk the goats too!!!
One really bad thing about recent travels is the Chimney pipe cap is busted so ill have to get a new one!!!
