Mums & Joan Visit Athens

Here's the short version . . . . . . I promise!
ZTA's made a banner for our VIP guests . . .

We go by Phi Mu to see their newly decorated living room; getting ready for the 150 birthday celebration of their house this weekend.  Ann Winger gives us the nickel tour. 




Katie Cloud comes to dinner on Wednesday night . . . .













Just before dinner we take a quick photo . . . . [not very good] ZTA Gals with "Miss Joan, Mums & Miss Becky" - Ashley, Katie, India [Buckhead & Woodward], Jo Ann, Joan, Keri, Becky & Mallory












Wednesday night after ZTA dinner, we go to the New Member/ DDD Alumnae Social at Tri Delta.

After the social we go downtown to The Winery . . . Mums and Joan @ The Winery in Downtown Athens sitting outside during an early fall evening.

Thursday morning we awake to Eggs Benedict at ZTA, followed by a few games of bridge with the Tri Delta House Mom.

Griffin comes to visit on Thursday afternoon; Mums & Griffin @ ZTA.









Later on Thursday afternoon Jo Ann and Joan have their pictures made to go on the ZTA Composite as ZTA House Grandmothers. After composite photo's, we head to the movies to see Vicky Christina Barcelona - we all love it - laugh out loud movie.  Joan's idea and we were so glad; written and directed by Woody Allen.


Thursday night Ann Winger invites us to go to the home of CL Morehead, the largest private collector of Lamar Dodd artwork.  
Ann was in the right place at the right time and got us a invited!  This event is for the rich and famous of Athens who have made substantial contributions to the arts in Athens.  We enjoyed cocktails, seated dinner and a private tour.  Our party favor was a fabulous coffee table book about Lamar Dodd with color photograph's of the entire Morehead Collection. We also met some famous professor from Sweden, Lars, and his even more famous musician wife from Greece.

Now . .  a mad dash from this event to the Tasty World in Downtown Athens for a fund-raiser; I am scheduled to bid on my friend, Brad Harris/ATO, for the UGA HERO's auction at 9:30. Mums & Joan are loving it and go along for the fun. The Mom's actually met Brad last visit when they came and visited me at Theta.

Our winning bid was $300 - of course ATO underwrites the money, Brad just wanted several people bidding on him.  Since I introduced him to his Theta girlfriend last fall, he wanted me to be part of the bidding . . . great guy.

Upon leaving Tasty World, we all hear this person yelling out my name . . . Miss Becky!!!! It's Casey Denny, Charlie's daughter, from Carrollton. She's a Theta and they were out for a costume social - Casey Denny, Mums & Joan-Downtown Athens.

When we weren't out and about, we solved many of the world's problems and also put a few finishing touches on our trip to Switzerland and Austria next summer.  

Let's just say that a good time was had by all!
Katie Nicholson Truex is in San Francisco this weekend and all next week on business; Harrison is visiting his family in Tennessee.

Happy Weekend . . . . .
GO DAWGS!
