Five Friday Happy Bringers 10/31/25

Posted on October 31, 2025 by Neal Saye

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Making our annual ofrenda (altar) for Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead), celebrating our loved ones who have passed on before us.

2. Halloween coffee this morning at one of our favorite coffee bars here in Savannah, Origin.

And the baristas who made them …

Robert has (dis)ability to have complete strangers line up for photos sessions.

3. The fortitude to laugh and savor the moment, even in the midst of our current political climate.

4. The Halloween morning light teasing our steep 1840’s stairs.

5. Cool Halloween decorations here in Savannah.

May your Halloween Weekend be filled with Good Spirits.

We’re doggie-sitting for Daughter Amy. Here’s Coastal leaning on Robert’s faded pinkish Smirnoff t-shirt this morn at coffee time.

“Patriotism”

Browsing through the clearance section at Hobby Lobby today, I rsn across this …

“Robert!” I shrieked across several aisles where he was searching for dragonfly figurines in the garden gnome section (Don’t get me started). “Quick! Please! Come take my picture!”

Used to my impromptu requests, HR fairly quickly found me, put down his two garden figurines (which looked more like weird birds than dragonflies to me) and took this photo.

I love the Profound Truth of Twain’s Patriotic Proclamation!

In solidarity with many Americans, I am having a great deal of trouble supporting the current administration’s Dangerous Dismantling of Democracy.

And I wholeheartedly believe that we should and must make our dissatisfaction known.

Walking into our kitchen when we got home, I glanced at the fridge and thought to myself, “Yes, Mark Twain, I know you were being humorous, but you are also so very correct!”

And I make that … Refrigerated Proclamation as a Patriot of my Country, the United States of America.

The Artful Dodger, Unexpected Art

“The Artful Dodger“ #27

Posted on July 24, 2025 by Neal Saye

A blog category about finding “art” in unexpected places and situations

So Robert and I were driving down the Truman Parkway here in Savannah the other day, minding our own business, when I casually looked out the passenger-side window and saw this.

Well actually, I “saw” nothing at first and started to look away, again casually, when a thunderous shout/scream reverberated through our little vehicle.

“WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT? TAKE A PICTURE—IT’LL LAST LONGER!”

Two things happened next. First, I quickly took another picture.

Second, before I glanced at the second photo, I nervously chuckled in my terror, remembering the famous Pee-wee Herman line.

The Chuckle Changed to Chagrin as I saw the bright, angry lightning pulse through the … the … the creature’s laughing mouth. See it?

“Robert!” I yelled. “Do you see him? We must leave this place! It harbors horror! Drive faster!”

HR took his eyes off the road for a second, long enough to give me a here-we-go-again stare, a stare one might bequeath a pitiful child or, perhaps, Pee Wee Herman.

“He was there. I saw him,” I countered.

But by that time the furtive creature had made his way into the words.
