Spring Time at St. Simons Magnolia Manor residents have been beautifying their campus! Mr. Shearouse, pictured above with his daughter Mrs. Pease and Sadie, is excited about being able to get back out and “get in the dirt!” The arrival of Spring is always beautiful in the Golden Isles when the azaleas burst into bloom and individuals emerge from their homes to enjoy the coastal breezes and invigorating sunshine. Many get involved in this reawakening by planting seasonal flowers, fruits, and vegetables, creating a kaleidoscope of color. Residents of Magnolia Manor of St. Simons are certainly no different as they enjoyed a pre-Easter treat with the recent blooming of beautiful tulips planted by the Sea Oats Garden Club. Club member Sandra Hochwald commented, “We wanted to provide an expression of the beauty of the new season for the Residents and hardy tulips seemed the appropriate choice. They’re often seen blooming up through the snow, a sign of renewed life after the often bleak days of winter!” The brilliant canary yellow blooms offered a stark contrast against the dark greenery just beginning to regain its brilliance. Our sincere thanks goes to Glynn Landscaping for donating the gravel and potting soil for the project and to Ace Hardware who offered their bedding plants at buy-one-get-one-free! Above, Faye Young, an active member in Magnolia Manor’s Red Hat Society, also enjoys gardening. And when all the planting at the Nursing and Rehab Center was finished, Mrs. Helen Brinkos, pictured above, took a seat on a memorial bench, flashed a huge smile, patted her legs playfully, and commented, “It’s all just so pretty out here—and everyone is just so nice!” Pictured above, to the right, Mr. Claude McGahee, well known especially in his native McIntosh County for his green thumb gift, is now totally back in his element. Preparing the soil and the planting of seeds had to be “just so” and residents are now anxiously awaiting the crop of fresh vegetables he is tending. Pictured above are residents, George Anderson and Fred Pruitt. 10 Magnolia Manor | www.magnoliamanor.com
Magnolia Manor Americus Tea Dance A group of residents from Magnolia Manor gathered one afternoon for a Tea Dance downtown Americus at the Nancy Jones School of Dance. Nancy Jones along with Ruth Jones and several of her friends hosted this lovely event. The Magnolia Manor residents had a great time dressing up and showing off their dancing moves. They danced to all types of music including fast beat music, slow, romantic music, and even the hokey pokey! Everyone enjoyed finger foods, socializing, listening to lively music, and dancing. What a fun way to bring in the Spring! Pictured above, Jean & Jim Stimpson enjoying themselves dancing. Pictured above are Ruth Jones and Betty Jones.
