Jennifer Travels to Rome, GA and Winshape Farms

Above you see a panoramic view of Winshape Farms near Rome, Georgia. The retreat center was developed out of a former dairy on the campus of Berry College. Berry College has the distinction of being the largest campus in the United States with 28,000 acres. The original dairy structures were inspired by dairy farms in Normandy, France. Today they house wonderful guest rooms, conference rooms and a fabulous dining hall.

When the conference ended, Jennifer and Celeste returned to the Atlanta airport via the "cow car" from Chik-fil-A. (Chik-fil-A operates the retreat center.) She and Celeste had quite an adventure driving the highly distinctive, Lincoln Continental to the airport, which is close to a 2 hour drive from the retreat center. And oh yes, even though they were told, "It's really easy; pretty much a straight shot," they did discover it is possible to get lost. Fortunately, people in Georgia are helpful to two women in a cow car.
