We took a Sunday drive to Feathered Friends Forever in Harlem, GA, to visit all the beautiful birds who have been rescued or needed a safe place to call home! 🦜…there are several large bird enclosures, called flights, to view and a few special needs birds to get up close and personal with! So cool! This bird sanctuary is entirely donation-based and is open to visitors on Saturdays and Sundays, 11am-4pm. The tour is partially self-guided on dirt and gravel paths, so wear comfy shoes! Easy, fun weekend adventure! 😊 xoxo- Caroline

Who’s up for ice cream for dinner? 🍦🙋🏻♀️ Kettle Creek Creamery just landed in Martinez’s Westlake Commons, bringing with them all those classic homemade ice cream flavors we love. They’ve been dishing out deliciousness in Washington, GA for years, and now they’re serving up scoops in Columbia County too! Personally, I’m all about the hot fudge sundaes, but I’ve taken it up a notch with some extra sprinkles and swapped out plain vanilla for their amazing Honey Bee Vanilla made with local honey 🍯. This summer is going to be seriously sweet. Who else has uncovered this hidden gem? Let me know! xoxo, Caroline

Tails wagging, tongues out…let’s sniff butts! 🐾 Bark in the Park at The Market in Evans, GA, was an event truly for the dogs!! 🐶
There was so much to do and new friends to meet. Bark in the Park had live entertainment, food trucks for the dog moms and dads, and loads of furry-friendly activities like water pads, balls, ropes, and even a few agility stations for the overachievers! Not my dogs; they just wanted to get tangled up in each other’s leashes! 🤣 Area pet stores and animal-friendly vendors were also on hand with fresh water, giveaways, and, of course, dog treats! 🦴
Perfect summer fun! ☀️ Who’s tagging along next time? xoxo- Caroline
