Saying Southern Goodbyes

January 7, 2020 By Jim Brewer

 

(Saw this in a recent e-mail. It’s worth sharing)

 

Southerners never just stand up, say goodbye and leave. There is a process, a 9-step process, and it goes like this.

 

“About to leave” warning

“We’ve got to get going,” statement

Hugs

Walking to the driveway

One more conversation in the driveway

More hugs

Talking while everyone’s piling in the car

Rolling down the window to say bye one last time

As you pull out of the driveway someone yells, “Watch for the deer.”
