North Georgia Moonshine
A History of the Lovells and Other Liquor Makers

The stories continue, and today, we are honored to share the work that materializes our two-year journey through the mountains of North Georgia. For Judy, it was simply going back home. She calls it "her love letter" to the mountains, the setting to her own memoir. Meet Carlos Lovell and his daughter Carlene; Carlos's brother Fred and sister Judy. Included is their mother's recipe for sweet potato pie. Trust me, you will want to make this. Make a pot of coffee, plate up some pie, and settle back for a couple of hours to walk with the pioneers of moonshine history in Georgia. [order today]

100 THINGS TO DO IN ATHENS BEFORE YOU DIE from Reedy Press
Judy Garrison, author; Len Garrison, photographer
Who We Are
We're Seeing Southern - Len + Judy - and we're on a mission to make life extraordinary. Combining our love of people, history, culture and the South, we're hitting the road to find the stories behind the places - which in essence - is really what makes any place worth visiting. We travel beyond the lists, uncover the motives, discover its teachings, and relish its contribution to our world.
Follow us in real time on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. |
Why We Travel
There comes a point in every life when you realize that if you sit still, you will miss everything. We choose not to miss anything. We live in the real world, with real jobs and responsibilities.
Just like you. We have chosen to make discovery a part of our life. Seek stories that will change us. Visit destinations that fulfill us. Consume foods that tantalize us. Walk with people who inspire us. Our discoveries will live here, and we hope you will be changed. Let's go! |
Let's Stay In Touch . . .
Be the first to know where we've been, where we're headed,
insights into people who call these places home. Thanks for supporting Seeing Southern, and we'll see you in your Inbox! We will not share your information. |
