Going Coastal

So Robert and I live in beautiful Historic District Savannah …

Savannah.com

… about 20 minutes from Tybee Island …

… and the Atlantic Ocean.

Tybee Island

Living near the coast is terrific.

But it does get on my nerves a teeny tiny bit that “Coastal” is incorporated into SO many businesses, organizations, etc. here.

My dermatologist is Coastal Dermatology.

My dentist is Coastal Dentistry.

My chiropractor is Coastal Chiropractic

Even my daughter Amy owns a local health care company called COASTAL Care Partners, for goodness sake!

And she has a dog named (of course) Coastal.

Who may or may not be gay.

My Saturday Evening Post: 1/20/24 “Bird Beauty”

So yesterday, Robert and I sashayed over to the Telfair Museums here in Historic District Savannah. (Yes, it’s plural—there are three separate buildings and locations.) One of the joys of living downtown is its walkability. (Is that a word, or did I just make it up?)

I wanted to see one of the newer and smaller exhibits at the Jepson Center.

I have always considered birds to be the personification of elegance and upper echelon beauty.

I was enthralled.

Five Friday Happy Bringers 1/19/24

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. A beautiful Martin Luther King Day parade here in Savannah.

2. Truth:

3. Grandson Gabriel’s soaring pink basketball shoes.

4. The incredible luxury of owning a car! Which like many (most?) things I usually take for granted.

Here’s ours …

Kidding.

Here it is …

(With Robert texting or something in his skinny jeans.)

Ours may be little and a bit shy, but she takes us from Point A to Point B. And even sometimes from Point A to Point Z!

5. You in all your You-ness.

May You and your You-ness find Warmth and a measure of Joy this weekend.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. January’s camellias here in Savannah.

2. I know I have expressed gratitude about this before, but isn’t it just such an incredible luxury to have Hot and Cold Running Water?!

3. This little fellow I met yesterday.

We chatted for a while. And he posed for a pic.

4. Simple sidewalk beauty.

5. A little bit of Christmas simply refusing to go away.

May weekend beauty find you.
