Seriously? Seriously!

So early this evening, Robert and I went for a walk along the Savannah River a few blocks from our place.

There’s a fairly new development along this evening’s trek, “Eastern Wharf” …

Eastern Wharf is the lower right quadrant of this photo.

Their advertising is obviously meant for “non-early-evening casual walkers” …

Seriously?

The only thing I saw that was worth $3 Mil to $9 Mil was the Stunning Sunset …

Seriously!

May you have a joyful million dollar view soon.

Five Friday Happy Bringers 11/22/24

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. A young HR’s new photo frame I recently found.

2. An overflowing citrus tree near us here in downtown Savannah.

3. My Arthritis Pain. Okay, that needs explanation. I’m Happy that I have a body. A body including wrists, knees and a lower back, all with the ability to FEEl.

Does that make any sense at all?

4. A wonderful gathering at our church Wednesday evening to help process and manage anxiety that some of us are feeling concerning the election.

5. A bookish bench we saw recently along the Augusta GA Riverwalk.

May you find a place to sit joyfully this weekend.

This Dirt

Each Monday morning I find a poem in my email from a former colleague at Georgia Southern University, where I taught for a zillion years. Eric calls his service Carpe Monday/Seize the Poem.

Yesterday’s was particularly insightful.

Follow Up to Monday Evening’s “The Older I Get” Blog Post

So the other night, I did a silly post about photographing older folks (“older folks” meaning me).

Here’s a link, in case you missed it:

Tonight, I am back in “My Square,” Washington Square, here in Historic District Savannah …

Reading …

Such a fun read! 

And I thought, “Should I do another selfie tonight?“

I started …

“There we go,” I thought, “that angle meets the criteria.”

Then got a bit braver …

And only because fellow blogger buddy Matt VERY generously said my best feature was my smile …

It’s getting dark, so I should go in. HR will be ready for dinner soon.

May you have a Joyful and Peaceful Wednesday night.

“Robert and … #43”

A blog category of pics I’ve taken of HR (Hubby Robert) and … well, just about anything.

So because of Hurricane Helene and NO POWER, Robert and I had to get outta Dodge (well, Savannah). So we hightailed it over to Columbus, Georgia, where younger daughter Emily lives.

Before going over to visit (and bother) Emily, we drove to downtown Columbus and the Chattahoochee River to see what we heard was “a tumultuous scene.” This “scene” was caused by the city having to open the floodgates to relieve the pressure, so as to avert further dangerous flooding in the Columbus area.

“Open the floodgates?” Perhaps you didn’t know Columbus had a dam. (Yes I said the word … “dam”— alternate spelling, “damn.”)

OK, enough of this silly rigamarole.

Here’s a short film, entitled “The Two R’s – the Damn River and Robert” …

As you can probably tell, Robert had no idea I was producing this award-winning film. 

But there he is, in a rather proud posture.
