This week Robert and I are getting away from downtown Savannah for a bit and staying at our buddy Gordon’s old country farmhouse in Effingham County GA.
When I texted my family to let them know we would be gone for a few days, daughter Amy almost immediately sent back this photo:
I asked her how on earth she did that.
“Put the photo y’all sent from Easter into Chat and said make them into farmers. 😂”
Technology!
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. Palms on Palm Sunday.
2. Savannah‘s azaleas. As usual, they are glorious this spring.
3. I’m grateful for a back … that can hurt.
Two weeks ago today, I had my fourth lower back procedure in the last seven months. This time an RFA—radiofrequecy ablation (whew), “a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat from radio waves to temporarily deactivate nerves sending chronic pain signals to the brain, commonly treating spine and joint pain.” (Thanks, AI.)
Frustratingly enough, I am feeling no relief. The typical time period before feeling if the procedure was effective is 5-7 days. This is day 14. 🙁
But you know what? What I do feel is Gratitude that I have a back that has the ability to hurt.
So there, Universe!
4. Finding yet another Free Little Library! This time across the street from Savannah’s beautiful Daffin Park.
Do you have these little treasures near where you are?
What a Joy of Surprise.
5. My little Easter/Spring displays in our apartment.
I recently fell in love with this hauntingly beautiful single-family mausoleum at the unparalleled Bonaventure Cemetery along the Wilmington River here in Savannah.
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.
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.

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.
