Bainbridge

So we went up to Georgia.

We got married in Bainbridge, Georgia in, I don't know, late sixties and 58 years ago.

Y'all married before you went to Vietnam? I was married five days before I went to Vietnam.

Wow.

The toe-tapper landed at number one on the country music charts in the United States and Canada, and received an award by the Country Music Association for the Best Single and the Best Song of the year.

I had a chance to interview Alan Jackson while I was working at a country station in Bainbridge, Georgia, and he said that he was amazed at his success.

After all, he said, "I'm just a country singer from Georgia." It was a pleasure talking to him.

Ever hear of a guy by the name of Jeff Foxworthy? Of course you have.

It

don't even hold up in Bainbridge.

No, it don't.

I mean, there's fields on one side of Decatur County that probably got the coals poured to it.

And their story begins with Brandy.

Brandy Peters was born in Bainbridge, Georgia, and grew up between Havana and Tallahassee.

She attended schools in both communities before graduating from Amos P. Godby High School in Tallahassee.

Those who knew Brandy described her as sweet and kind.

Quote, she loved her kids, Cicely later said.

Brandy's oldest children, Tamaya and Tenaya, were born in 2004.

The identical twins had spent their early years in Bainbridge, Georgia, and then Tallahassee.

And by 2010, they were six years old and in the first grade.

Well, we, we were there in 2023, but this time of year it's been a long time since we have been to Lake Seminole.

That'll be May 6th through the 9th, Bainbridge, Georgia.

Not too late in the post-spawn, Tommy, but Lake Seminole in May, guess when the last time we were there was?

Oh my, I couldn't, I couldn't tell you.

April 22nd through the 25th, the next week, Lake Fork in Texas.

May 6th through 9th, Lake Seminole.

Bainbridge, Georgia, May 20th through 23rd at the Santee Cooper Lakes.

June, we jump to June, 17th through 20th, Tennessee Tom Bigge River.

Yeah, he left.

Jamie left when they were going to be at Bainbridge, Georgia.

I'll have to get with him.

I like him.
