In Central Georgia, you don't have to go far to find an adventure.This collection of stories and adventures has been gathered from glimpses of billboards, travels on many roads, conversations with friends, and encounters with some of the most interesting individuals and places in Central Georgia. Veteran 13WMAZ TV News Journalist Suzanne Lawler takes you along on her adventures through a farm in Haddock dedicated to herbs; a Noveau-European restaurant in Forsyth; and a Macon restaurant that serves up world-famous hot dogs.Talking with these people and hearing their stories you'll learn what makes Georgia unique. You'll also learn that each of these characters loves his own special pursuit whether it's the unlikely folk celebrating the redneck way of life in Dublin, a Sparta man with the self-proclaimed "smallest winery in the South," or a group of cowboys and cowgirls in Twiggs County who simulate old Hollywood gunfights.Some stories are quirky, others will touch your heart, but all of them will prove to be about or of places you'll want to visit and friends you want to make. Cotton, Cornbread, and Conversations will leave you eager to explore this place that so many call home.
