I've had requests for additional footage from Twilight Theatre's production on "Les Miserables" so I complied.
I have to mention that I failed to include very much footage or credit to the lead of the show- call it oversight or pre-vacation brain freeze- but I want to make sure I say what a great job Trevor Martin did as Jean Valjean. Emily Baldwin: "Les Miserables" at the Fred

On Sunday, July 1, I decided to get in my car and travel up I-85 to Greenville, SC.

Sun Dried Tomato continues to please
Steve Zombik, the head chef and co-owner of Sun Dried Tomato, never thought he would own, or want to own, a restaurant. Zombik had been an executive chef at hotels in New Hampshire, Boston, and Jamaica before moving to Peachtree City and serving as the executive chef at the Wyndham.
