Nice shots of Savannah, Pat.

We are thinking of going there for vacation in May.
It's made the top 4 list of places to go, so I may be prodding you for some information.


Thanks... and sounds good!! I have a few more shots from downtown today but likely will not get them processed till next week as I heading out on the bike tomorrow for 5 days...

Savannah is beautiful....but you'll just miss the best St. Patrick's Day celebration in the country. The St. Patty's Day week is quite an event in Savannah!

I've been to St. Patrick's Day parade in NYC a few times. That one is tough to beat.

NYC is ranked ahead of only Savannah's and Chicago's. Savannah is right up there....I personally have never been to NYC or Chicago's but I think I'd take Savannah's 1st for one reason: The weather. It is definitely spring time in Savannah and flowers are in bloom and temps are very warm or even hot. The crowds on the riverfront the whole weekend are blockbuster. Girls going topless and such...and plenty of beads. It's like Mardi Gras. Beleive me, the 3 times I've been were well worth it. It's beautiful all the time though....

Savannah has many small squares and each has at least one monument. This one is in
Franklin Square, right at the end of City Market.

Where in FL Pat? I'm figuring around the Jacksonville area based on your previous trips.


You got it Marilynne.. It was just North of JAX.. Black Hammond Island area North side of the St Johns off A1A. The ruins were at Fort George Island Cultural State Park (across the St Johns from Mayport Naval Air Statjion)

We've stayed in Darien a few times. Have you been to the Darien Chamber of Commerce to visit the Darien monster?
