Big Canoe's Response To Inclement Weather

As a resident of Big Canoe, I am VERY proud of the employees who make our roads safe during inclement weather. Last night a combination of snow and sleet decended upon us after dark. With close to 100 miles of roads within Big Canoe and elevations as high as 3200 feet, conditions of this nature might cause for unsafe conditions.

However, our road department crews were out sanding the roads making travel safe for our residents. In addition, our family of guards assisted those residents who experienced some slippery spots.

We are blessed to have commited firefighters and Big Canoe Emergency Response volunteers ready to assist in any situation. A big THANK YOU to all our family of employees and volunteers who make this the BEST place to live.

Let It Rain

Well we have had a LOT of rain in the North Georgia mountains the past week. I am not complaining though. It created a multitude of beautiful waterfalls in Big Canoe and the creeks flowed abundantly! The lakes have been down somewhat, but now are brimming to the top.

We have a small water feature in front of our house that is frequently visited by a certain squirrel every day. Living in the woods gives one a whole new meaning of "neighbor". Many of our neighbors have four legs. We all co-exist together in peace. I wish people throughout the world could be more like that.

Today is Sunday and that means going to Big Canoe Chapel. The Chapel has been said to be the "heart beat" of our community. We have close to 1,000 members. It is multi-denominational church. Everyone of every religion is welcome. Come visit us and enjoy the fellowship.

January 3, 2009

My husband and I just returned from a month stay in St. Augustine. That is the longest we have ever been away from Big Canoe and I can tell you I REALLY missed Big Canoe. Nothing can expressed the feeling of being home when we drove into the driveway. Everything was peaceful and quiet. A slow rain was coming down and fog was meandering through the trees. What a sight.

Now don't get me wrong. A little sunshine and warm weather with the beach thrown in as an added treat is nice every now and then. However, when your heart is screaming for the North Georgia mountains, you have to react.

Usually the amount of visitors to our community is increased during the holiday season. It may take you longer to get out the Main Gate due to more cars than normal wandering the roads here, but no one is in a hurry here.

Come visit us sometime. Call me before you come and I will show you around. Have a wonderful day filled with abundant blessings!
