Yay!, spring activities. Can’t wait till it reaches here.
What a great list of activities! I’m getting cabin fever after being stuck inside all winter here in Indiana.
Thanks for sharing at the #HomeMattersParty 🙂
We used to live in Warner Robins! It was my husband’s first assignment and we really grew to love the area and made such wonderful friends! The Cherry Blossom Festival was always one of our favorite events of the year. <3
The Warner Robins area has grown by leaps and bounds in the last few years! My daughter and her family live there almost to Kathleen. We are out in the country between Macon and W.R. but we do a large majority of our shopping in W.R. There is a ton of activities going on in our neck of the woods. It is just getting started and will only increase throughout the spring and summer. Cherry Blossom begins March 19th but there are a lot of pre-events going on now. Thanks for sharing with me 🙂
You are making me homesick, girl! I grew up in the middle of all of those great places. My dad retired from the Air Force Base in Warner Robins after working there for as long as I remember. This is such a great way to share what’s happening in your neck of the words (and will always be mine, too).
There is so much to see and do this time of year. I know this series is going to work me but I will enjoy it. Stacy and I like to find day trips and fun things to do in the area so why not share. I’m going to probably keep it going throughout the spring and summer months while there are so many activities available.
