Keep Albany Beautiful (aka You Might be a Redneck...)




Well, I'm back in Albany after two weeks at home to take care of a few things. This came in my Dad's mail and really made me laugh, so I thought I'd share it. It speaks volumes about this area, and you'll see what I mean when I say Albany is different. If any of you know Jeff Foxworthy, this would be a great "you might be a redneck if..."!

There are parts of Albany that are really beautiful. Below are a couple of examples. The first is a river house that is on Byron Plantation. It's way off the road set among some really old pecan trees. I was able to zoom in to get the photo, but it doesn't really do it justice. The 2nd photo is of a cotton field just before harvest. It's hard to see the actual cotton because it looks like a glare on the plant, but these plants were full of cotton balls, and the fields go on forever.
