One of my favorite places to eat in Columbus Ga is the Bavarian House located on Whittlesey Road, behind the Main Street shopping ctr. I have to admit that I am partial to german cooking and Monika Washington the owner of the Bavarian House does an admirable job. If meat and potatoes don't drive you wild then maybe some of the fantastic german desserts will. The food is excellent and quite filling.
One fourth of the restaurant is a bar featuring the usual sports tv highlights and of course German and Domestic BEER. All of you familiar with schnitzel will really appreciate what the Bavarian House has to offer. Saturdays you will find a host of German ladies speaking in a variety of German dialects.
Good Food, Great Desserts and Beer, Wine and Spirits on occasion you will find a trio or quartet playing some of your favorite music. Octoberfest is reserved for live Polka music and dancers.
Look around when you come to visit, I'll be sitting on the right side, so stop and say hello.
Drive Carefully! Interstate 185 is being widened!
Three miles of Interstate 185 connecting Columbus Ga to Ft Benning are still under construction. The crews have made tremendous progress moving earth and erecting barriers. Utility lines and sewer lines seem to have been taken care of and construction has begun on the bridge expansions required for the six lanes of traffic that will lead to Fort Benning and South Columbus.
Good News from Ft. Benning! Christian Bray and his first grade classmates began a letter writing campaign that may have life saving benefits for young Christian and his family. Christian Bray was diagnosed with epilepsy and cerebral palsy at birth and the recent efforts of these fantastic first graders caught the attention of J.D. Fenessy of the Milk-Bone Company. Milk-Bone is a Sponsor of Canine Assistants, a non profit organization that provides service dogs.
Christian has seizures and stops breathing when he is sleeping, hopes are that his new canine friend will alert his parents and allow Christian to become more independent. Service dogs can be trained to understand ninety separate commands and to recognize Christians specific needs. Specifically the four footed guardian will be able to open doors, turn on lights, pull wheel chairs and fetch. In May the Bray family will meet their newest family member and begin a bonding / training program to meet Christian's specific needs.
CONGRATULATIONS to the Bray Family, Christian's teacher and classmates your efforts were simply AWESOME. Wonderful kids and teachers make up the Columbus, Ft. Benning and Phenix City Community I am proud and happy to share this news with everybody.
The annual SOA Watch Protest held in November of 2007 made the news in Columbus Ga., Fort Benning and a few other places. Eleven protesters who trespassed onto federal property during the rally were sentenced to jail terms by U.S. District Court Magistrate, G. Mallon Faircloth. A 76 year old blind man named Edwin Ross Lewinton was among the defendants sentenced to 90 days in jail. This was the fourth time that Lewinton had appeared before the court since 2003 and Magistrate Faircloth did offer him the option of 90 days house arrest. Lewinton would not hear of it and responded, "If a blind person were a drug dealer, he would be sent to jail."
The SOA Watch Protest is an annual event that has grown in numbers since the School of Americas training program was established at Fort Benning. Protesters want to change U.S. Policy in Latin America.
