The next 4 weeks the days seemed to go by so fast. But Margo and Daniel spent every waking moment together. they went to the movies,  and swimming, to the soda shop. always spending all the time that they could together ,any where you seen one of them, you seen the other one. you could tell that they were in love, the moment you looked at them.

finally at last it was time to leave for home. They had traded in their  airline tickets and rented a car, so they could drive back together. She was so excited to go back home, and let her family and friends meet Daniel. That last day before Daniel arrived to pick her up; Margo took one  more walk around the grounds of magnolia lane. As she walked past the magnolia trees, she picked one and slid it into her hair. How she had  always loved the smell of the magnolia blossoms. Then she walked thru the white picket arch that was the entrance to the flower garden.

As she walked ,she thought about all the history that magnolia lane held for her family. The war, the slaves ,the lumber mill, and the crops. She would miss the old place, because now it held new memories for her. And she would always remember that  summer when she fell in love, with Daniel in that special place, where the magnolia blossoms blooms.
