I recently fell in love with this hauntingly beautiful single-family mausoleum at the unparalleled Bonaventure Cemetery along the Wilmington River here in Savannah.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Passport”
I walked in the kitchen and saw Robert, reminding me that I should post a T-shirt Tuesday!
For several years now, we have participated in Georgia’s Farm Passport program:
“The Farm Passport features over 100 farms included in Georgia Farm Bureau’s Certified Farm Markets program, which was created to help people discover where their food comes from, meet the farm families who grew the food, and create lasting memories as they travel the state.” Farm Bureau, GA
With each visit to a farm, we get our “passport” stamped to go toward prizes, including the T-shirt.
Tuesday Truth: 3/31/26 “But?
******************
“But did you die?”
******************
On a bumper sticker Robert and I saw the other day as we were driving along Henry Street here in Savannah.
Oh my goodness, did that question and its underlying truth ever hit home!
I often find myself complaining about the LEAST little thing: “If only the temperature could be about five degrees cooler today!”
Or “I just HATE getting a stomach ache!”
But …
Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 3/30/26
I’m still Marveling this Morning at Saturday’s incredible turnout of the very patriotic No Kings Day! protest marches across our beloved nation, and indeed the world.

My Saturday Evening Post: 3/28/26 “Please, No Kings!”
Today Robert and I joined thousands of other Savannah area patriots by participating in our third No Kings Day protest here in our hometown.
Please allow this sampling of creatively truthful protest signs and banners be the text for this post.
We felt honored to be a part of this peaceful, nonviolent and exuberantly hopeful crowd of patriots who so love our United States of America.
We kept running into folks we know. Here’s good buddy Critter. Isn’t that the coolest name?
And that’s my Saturday Evening Post.
Five Friday Happy Bringers 3/27/26
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. The beautiful Cherokee Rose that HR and I found along one of the hiking trails at Skidaway Island State Park near Savannah.
2. This Lovely Yellow at the Savannah Botanical Gardens.
I love my iNaturalist app, which helps me to quickly verify plants I see along life’s way.
3. My only complaint about all this springtime beauty would have to be the heavy overlay of pollen upon Savannah. So I am thankful for my Allegra, Flonase, and redi-melt Claritin.
4. My nose—even when it glows with springtime allergies.
5. Non-humans.
We all need a bit of Escape from People now and again.
Make you escape to a fun and healthy spring weekend ahead.
Thursday Doors: “Doors of Wellness” 3/26/27
Some years ago I came across two positive quotations which gradually have become a type of “doors” for my mental and physical health. If I remember correctly, I heard them from motivational author and speaker Louise Hays.
“My body knows how to be well and is always trying to move toward wellness.”
******************
“I listen with love to my body’s messages.”
Both exude such a rightness to me.
I have come to believe that our bodies are more than what we usually think they are. They have a “knowingness” and a “protectiveness” built into their very nature.
They tell us, for example, when we have been eating unhealthfully, and in the very telling, try to persuade us otherwise.
Or our bodies might alert us with shortness of breath or a sudden feeling of “something’s not right” when we are in the shadow of un-safety.
So yes, our bodies want us to be well AND to do a better job of listening to them.
They may seem small, but what wonderfully encouraging “doors” they are.
