Former US Ambassador to Turkey Ross Wilson visits Georgia

Funny how the world turns. And keeps turning. Yesterday, I went to the library and was pleased to see it was very full of all kinds of people, children and adults alike. Before traveling to any destination, it is always a good idea to learn as much as you can. The library was full of books, DVDs, and foreign language tapes. Yep, they even had "You Can Learn Turkey before you Land." I'll let you know how that goes.

The book that stirred my interest in Turkey was, This is My Life by Sakip Sabanci. Former President Jimmy Carter wrote the introduction. This where we see how the world turns. Former President Carter vacations with Joe Biden this week in the Virgin Islands. If Carter is in the Virgin Islands, who is minding Georgia while he is gone? We don't know today, but we know former US Ambassador to Turkey, Ross Wilson, spoke earlier this year at the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum.

I think our former President still has a strong love for Turkey. Let's hope he shares a few books with the Vice-President for their beach reading this week.

More later,
Dian
