I hope you had a excellent Easter with your friends and family. Ours was a bit unexpected with my mother-in-law (90) going in to the hospital. We were able to spring her out on Monday before we left. The doctor released her, as he explained, there really isn't anything else they can do for her. She is old and her body is wearing out. It's not the fun part of life, but it is part of life. My husband's youngest brother and his wife have her living with them now. I was able to give her a manacure in the hospital that made her feel more like herself. All you can do is what you can. I am also asking for your prayers for my son-in-law, Tim. He is struggling with substance and alcohol abuse and has started rehab. He has started down a long hard road, but Jesus is in his heart.
So we are home and catching up from being away. Here are some fun things going on in our area this week:

Enjoy a day of fun with our guests at the Kingsland Mini-Con hosted by the GEORGIA COASTAL RAILWAY in our KINGSLAND STATION AMPHITHEATER located at 440 S. Lee St in Kingsland, Ga just 2 miles west of I-95!
Our guests include:
W.F. Bell, a 20-year Air Force Veteran most notably recognized for his role as a recurring Savior and Hilltopper on AMC's "The Walking Dead" as well as appearances in MacGyver, The Vampire Diaries, Outcast, Ozark, and other Atlanta-based productions, and the films "All Eyez on Me", "Strange Tales from Appalachia", and "Blood is My Fate". Ever looking for interesting projects, he is working on developing independent films based on his own short stories.
Jack McDevitt is a celebrated science fiction author with 35 novels to his credit that started with "The Hercules Text" in 1986 and won the Philip K. Dick Special Award. Jack's works have been on the final ballot for the Nebula Awards for 12 of the past 13 years. His latest novel, "Return to Glory," is an anthology of his short stories of which one story is the namesake of the novel's title. The story is set on Earth two hundred years from now where an archeologist uncovers a copy of a long lost show called "Star Trek" only to discover it is something called a fan production! Wow!
Joe Motes is the force that created Vulkon Entertainment which specialized in science fiction-related fan conventions from 1986 through 2003, and also created the Seatrek Cruises that ran from 1987 through 2003 (and Joe will tell you the idea was a collaboration with James Doohan!) Joe has hundreds of Star Trek friends and has all the stories to boot!
Enjoy a day of fun with our guests during meet-and-greet sessions, panels, photo ops and autograph sessions! And maybe take a scenic train ride in one of our open-air cars!
Admission for this event is FREE if you book a train ride at the station, or else a $10.00 entrance fee.
