Helen, Georgia #WW

 

Purrrs and hisses, Kittens & Dawgs! Years ago, we visited the tiny north Georgia community of Helen only briefly while on a day trip with the kiddoes.  It was mid-summer and the terrorists tourists were everywhere! We vowed to return but it didn’t happen until now.  We took a day while on staycation to make the three-hour drive to see the sights.  We were hoping for a beautiful Xmas display and we weren’t disappointed.  

It has a strong German flavor with its Bavarian style architecture which is what makes the town so charming. When I said it’s a tiny community, I wasn’t kidding. According to their website, Helen has only 430 residents and get this, it’s the state’s third most visited city.  That explains why the crowd that summer was thicker than pea soup. 

There are two Hansel & Gretel Candy Kitchens in Helen.  This is the one we popped in, to buy an assortment of confections. I am happy to report DH & I gave them two thumbs up.

 

 

 

 

This is the other Hansel & Gretel location. 

 

 

The gray day made photography challenging.

 

 

I created this college of the quaint side streets running between the shops. We felt like we were strolling the streets in Germany.

 

 

What did you expect from us? Of course, we visited the town’s bakery! We bought several things.  I think this may require a second visit when we go back hopefully next spring. 

 

 

 There isn’t a prompt this week for the art challenge, but I hope you’ll join host, Michael MacVean and all the other artists next week!

 

I borrowed the German Xmas song selected from this 8 Jolly German Xmas Christmas Xmas Songs to Boost Your Holiday Spirit which I plan to re-read to learn more about each carol featured. 

 

 

Today’s post is in part sponsored by the letter ‘X’ as in Xmas and the ABC Wednesday community.
 

 

I suspect between now and until the end of the year my blogging life is going to find its way on the back burner.  No, I won’t abandon ship completely but my posts will be fewer, return visits slower, and my response time even slower. I say y’all are in the same boat so we’ll just need to cut each other a lot of slack and enjoy the season.  

My linky party is open to all regardless of what kind of post you have as long as you’re a personal blogger.  All commercial websites, advertisers, or other spammy, non-fun links are subjected to immediate termination by the linky hostess!

 

Xmas is just around the corner, folks.  Enjoy the holiday season. Have an eXtraordinarily blessed day. I’ll see ya soon! 😉
